Stafford Classic Bike Show

Had a wander around the Stafford Bike Show today. Loads and loads of Rd's, TT 500's and all the other stuff. Not a bad show really. Spent all day looking for an FZR and didn't see one, until right at the end when I found one that had just been auctioned in Bonhams auction rooms. Couldn't find out how much it went for so I checked on line and it doesn't look like it sold. Jees I could've spent another week just looking around there.

Fortunately I was in a friends car so it's probably no on both counts I'm afraid. It's around a hundred miles I think. Wouldn't have thought twice about going on my bike tho really. Mind you I love driving/riding. Been down to Swansea and back today. Wouldn't want to do that in a day on my bike tho. I'd never be able to roll me ciggys.

Not sure if I'm allowed on my Gixxer. I live 10mins from Matlock and have almost given up on Derbyshire now. Too many cameras, unmarked plod and cages. Like Lincolnshire better.

What did I just say?
Anyway Ted, what are you riding in case I find myself in Matlock?
Because Matlock is overcrowded a few of us meet at the Woodside Cafe in the large layby at the bottom of the Via Gellia. Very biker friendly.
Fireblade plod also uses it.
