Re: Bike mad people?

There's an old bloke in my village in Norfolk who showed me his collection of classic motorcycles - he keeps them all in his living room! Yes, he is a bachelor.:)

Re: Bike mad people?

Yes, though the Triumph is a triple of course. Do you ride into work? The illegality of filtering always put me off riding in Calgary, but I bet it's a blast up in the mountains.
