Got 9 years mate that's plenty before I start worrying about that one. Scotland, if you have never done it you HAVE to get to Fort William first week in May, there really is nowt like it........as to the female clothing, I'm with Monty Python

Ask Big John...... The rest of us are a bit too young really...

clattery- yes, industrial to a large extent. It does not sound as crisp as the 4rt or the beta on the pick-up. It's not quiet either however it does look not bad for a first proto and the engine DOES look really compact, that was the aim of the side valve though. We'll see, you can't tell till it's there in the flesh anyway. That young Tarres chappie doesn't look so sylphlike any more either

Welcome to the madhouse Twinshock, you're no doubt aware there is s specific Fantic forum on the site. i'm sure you'll find more Fantic fanatics in there.

Nooo, Stop, you've gone too far Ham2...too much for the minds eye that one

Ahh so you were watching too Mr C........ nah sod the singer KyLIE.......

just my opinion guys but then again, I wrap mine in blankets to keep the rubber soft so i don't have to buy more than 1 a year......tight, I learned my trade in Yorkshire

trust me mate, It's not worth it unless you paln to build sections with them, No point putting worn tyres on a bike

The girls in here are watching that x factor rubbish but I had to post.....that outfit Kylie was nearly wearing was a bit special

I go to as many of the Scottish Classic Club scrambles as I can purely for the love of the noise of some of the old scramblers and the smell of the "R", there are still loads of CCM's around and they pop up from time to time on evil bay. Last one I saw went for over

I remember meeting a really old bloke in Ripon Rugby Club by the name of Tom Ellis, that was in 92 not that it helps much

Have to agree with Bikespace, four stroke fanatic but I love the 2ts as well and Doug is maybe hoping that the magic that took him to 7 titles will return on the 2 stroke. Will be nice to see the Beta name right back in the mix as well, they finally have a rider worthy of the bikes. I wonder what "special" beasty he'll roll out on in the New Year. Pity HRC wouldn't release him for Sheffield I hope the change to Beta will give him the impetus and energy to take the 100th win and more.

Risk Assessments at Christmas It is important that this risk assessment be taken into account by all Staff contemplating participation in any official or professional capacity at any religeously related song concert or similar event during the impending Mid-Winter Festival. "As shepherds watch their flocks by night" It is highly undesirable for all the shepherds to watch their flocks by night. To avoid excessive working hours the shepherds should either have a rota or use an out of hours provider. This line should preferably be modified to avoid encouraging a long hours culture. "All seated on the ground" Due to the uncontrolled nature of the lie of the land it is unlikely that the ground will provide an ergonomically suitable seating position. Properly designed seating should be used. The line should be modified to reflect this. "The angel of the Lord came down" To avoid miss-diagnosis as a schizophrenic experience it is important to ensure that this visit be properly documented either through a file note signed by the angel or through photographic evidence. "And glory shone around" In the absence of adequate research about the effects of such divine glory on the retina it is suggested that exposure be limited to 15 minutes. "Once in royal David's city In a lowly cattle shed Where a mother laid her baby In a manger for a bed" The Nursing and Midwifery Council have confirmed that in no circumstances can this practice be endorsed due to the risk of neonatal tetanus. This carol should not be used as it is in breach of child protection policies. "Away in a manger No crib for a bed" These lines should be modified to comply with child protection Policies. "The little Lord Jesus Laid down his sweet head" In view of current obesity problems the word "sweet" should not be used to imply adorability. A less semantically challenging word, such as "cute" should be used instead. It is also important that the correct sleeping position be emphasised as a footnote to this carol. "Ding dong merrily on high" "Hark the herald angels sing" Reference to noise abatement regulations should be added in each case. "God rest ye merry gentlemen Let nothing you dismay" The word merry could be taken to imply the consumption of excessive Alcohol and therefore this could be seen as an endorsement of binge drinking. The second line however demonstrates the overconfidence induced by excess alcohol consumption. The carol is therefore potentially educative if linked to appropriate educational material. It should not however be used in other settings. "Good King Wenceslas looked out etc" This is a seriously irresponsible carol encouraging senior managers to leave their posts during a major adverse weather incident in order to embark on a dangerous quest to rescue a single individual, putting a member of their staff (the page) at risk in the same ill-founded endeavour. Had Wenceslas attended properly to his duties he could have arranged for the clearance of snow from the forest roads allowing social security officials to reach the poor man in the normal way. This carol must not be used except as a negative example in a training exercise.

The "fat lads" splatter: Aim the bike at the rock, rev the B*****ks off it dump the clutch, miss the kicker, forget to pull back on the bars and splatter yourself all over the rock face.....

Javier, you know you want to!! Was never a big fan of the Ossa probably because it reminded me of Latin is school, ossa - bone, till the yellow and orange Grippers came out but I have to say that looks pretty superb. Maybe you could get some of your specialist friends to do a restoration job on OTF or Big John, they certainly need some sort of help

Pleased to see the "Fat Lads" answer is winning....
