This is getting silly - Rhubarb - 07-26-2013

We have been doing a major clear out in the hopes of moving to something smaller one day.
I can see the floor in the workshop and space in the driveway.
Until this week.

Mark has accrued yet another trailer- so that's 4 we have with only 3 vehicles with towbars.
No 1 son has his VW back on the road and came home today with his mates to change the interior from grey to jet black (the car is black)
His Speed Triple comes home next week from storage

Mark found the very bike he has been looking for on Ebay. He went to see the owner. He took me today.

So now as from August we will own
1 Camper
2 Saab V4
1 Fiat 500
1 Renault 4
1 VW Golf GTI Turbo
1 Yamaha Fazer 600
1 Honda cg125
1 Triumph Speed Triple
"2" Kawasaki motorbikes a 550GT AND the bike I first went pillion on with Mark a 400KZ, same colour and everything!

Something is going to have to go............we can't use them all at once
Did I say we had a clear out?
Well we did, briefly.

Almost sounds as bad as my barn and garage.
I'll trade you something.

Any sky hooks?

This is why we went all the way to Knightbridge in London

It came with a 'cat basket' and an apron (the rider wears clipped to the bike to keep out the rain)

The cat basket is already in the rubbish (to be re-cycled)

And this is why we haven't so much spending money on holiday

I like the bike, reminds me of the one my dad had when i was a kid

I love the Kawasaki -
I saw the same model in the pub carpark 35 years ago and drooled over it. Landlords son pointed out the owner and I thought 'hmm he's not too bad either'

Been married 33 years.

The Honda makes us laugh so much. No1 son completed the charity ride out (that is his Triumph top right hand) then came home and saw me trying it out around the block so wanted a go too. Set off still in all his racing leathers! He looked so funny crouched on it at 30mph.

Well see that kawasaki is way more comfortable to ride than any crotch rocket bike, which was a point i was getting around to making somewhere else around this place recently....
