I was going to go with the " Ground hog day theme" you beat me too it.

Don't worry it was a pretty cheap gag anyway! Fun movie though, even if this whole year has been like it for me.

It wasn't Wrighty we were referring to Charlie, just one of our local riders. No animosity intended towards the person involved, just a bit of local banter.

...well if you didn't get in the Pre-65 Scottish, you are always welcome to ride Alvie Woody! You know you want to!

As Mr Raga likes hopping and skipping, I don't think he would like to ride the Pre-65, unlike another true trials enthusiast who will be riding number 97 in the 2010 Pre-65 Scottish who understands that you don't need to stop a trials bike in full-flow!

My lips are sealed! :wacko:

Hi: This is me in Eyjafjallajkull, the glacier and volcano that is causing so much trouble in Europe. (I know how to write it, but not how to pronounce it).

The scenario is the next:

Travelling from Spain to the UK is nowadays impossible for the next few days. The only way to go is to travel up to France by car and cross the channel there by ferry. Ferrys from Spain to the UK are fully booked untill 2nd May. Buying an Eurotunnel ticket or a train ticket to Paris is science fiction.

I have been lucky enough to share the cabin of who is driving some of the Spanish bikes up to Kinlochleven next Sunday 25th, 5 hours up to Bilbao, 28 hours ferry and 10 hours up tp Kinlochleven.... but I don´t know what is going to happen if this situation continues.

Hope this volcano stops erupting or maybe we are lucky and winds change and send the ashes somewhere else.

Maybe some are lucky and get a ride in the pre65 thanks to this place....
