I'm an old Triumph nut.
Gimme "Slippery Sam" any day.

How do you pick one?!

If it was one or nothing, I would probably end up with the Matchless - a beautiful bike But then the BSA man in me would spur up, and I might end up with the Rocket!!

I have to agree with Shorty, I am a triumph man, cant see myself ever owning another bike that isn't a triumph. so 'slippery sam' for me also.

I went to Penrith Hoyts multiplex cinema tonight to watch the Isle of Man 2013 movie/doco. It's the first time I've been to a big theatre in over 40 years and I was unprepared.

Not for the crowd - there were only 8 of us in the theatre.

After 30 minutes, I had to give up. The volume was painfully high. I never thought to take ear plugs. Had I been on the bike I would have had plugs with me.

I tried putting my fingers in my ears but that didn't help so I went out and asked if I could buy plugs. The lass outside came in and checked, then radioed the projection room and asked them to lower the volume.

They didn't. I tried putting up with it for a bit longer but couldn't. So I came home. I can't see me going back to the theatre again - at least not without earplugs.

Definitely mad!

I didn't realise Tohatsu produced motorcycles.
We have one of their outboard motors and it's a fantastic reliable little jigger.


Cheers, Mick.

Who remembers Geoff Duke?
Pickles.

Had the pleasure of meeting Geoff Duke when he was out here at Mt Druitt, nice bloke. He was riding his Championship winning Manx Norton and from memory it had a full bin.
He was burnt off by Art Senior on the old Red Hunter Aerial for about two laps untill the Aerial blew, it was quite funny.
Art's thingy was a pushrod 500.
Art was one of our top tuning specialists at the time.
