I've been busy in the Garage
Thursday 2nd May 2024Yesterday I fitted a brand new pair of rear shocks absorbers, removed the rear side panel extensions relocated my turn signals, spray painting a few bits, and fitted a red rear luggage rack.

Preperation
Tuesday 30th Apr 2024Hi,
I would just like to tell you a little about what I do to prepare for this event, I start fairly early on deciding what outfit I'm going to wear, the first year was Jeans, a shirt and waistcoat, last year I went for tweed, padded plaid shirt for warmth and tweed Plus 4's with long socks and a pair of tan brogues. This year I will be wearing Black Tux trousers, black roll neck and a deep red Velvet Jacket, and a pair of shiny vintage Mess Boots with red laces, myself and my wife searth the Internet and various other places and buy what I need.
I also ensure my bike is fit for the ride, having suffered clutch failure at the end of last years ride, I have had a new one fitted, new shocks are on order and I am fitting some baffles to quieten down my exhausts lol
Cheers
Nick
I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride
Wednesday 27th Mar 2024 On Sunday the 19th of May 2024, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.My Sponsors
