Raining Datsun cogs

Post by Smartbear » Tue Oct 24, 2017 4:44 pm

Hi, I got my other bmw back from the dealers last week after repairs were carried out following my horrific toe incident :o
The repair involved replacing some internal gearbox parts so I’ve gingerly been out for a short bimble to check no cogs fell out :P
All seems well apart from a sore toe, I’ve still not got a big toe nail so changing up was a bit painful :roll:

Good lad. :thumbsup:

P.s you hooligan. Your not in total control of that bike, plus you looked for the perfect roundabout to show off, 3 points and a slap on the wrist.

Mr Bear

Do you ever go out to the monthly car event at the Hare in Roxwell? A fairly small event for supercar types.

A lot of my biking buddies are from Essex and we often meet there on the bikes on 1st Saturday of the month (not sure if it's on throughout the winter months).

A lot of Ferrari's, Lambos, Aston's etc show up, as well as some older high quality classics. A couple of SLS Mercs and a stunning new Mustang showed up last month.

No hooligan stuff going on, just an appreciation of some nice cars.

Cheers

I used to pop in there with my Lotus on a few occasions but haven’t been for yonks-will have to have a look again. Do you ride down from Northants for it? :thumbsup:
