the 'Anyone going to Boxhill today?' thread

Hoi!! that's my old bike you're talking about - beauty is in the eye of the beholder as you well know!

 

I know, I know. Some folks have lots ugly in their eyeballs : o D

 

Certain people need to have a look in the mirror before critiquing what is a magnificent motorcycle.

 

Took the M900 to a new venue today, Stanmer House Classic Motorcycle & Scooter Show. Pretty good turnout with interesting bikes in both the car park & on show outside the stately home itself. Free coffee, nice parkland surroundings & no rain made for a good rideout. Someone even complimented me saying nice to see a Ducati here. There were a few others but maybe we can get more in future? Would advise taking a side stand puck though as ground a little uneven in said car park.

 

Looks good S. Can you confirm that the next one is on May 20th?
If it is I would like to go.

 

'Like' for the old Lambretta LD.

 

@bootsam you interested in going to the Stanmer house thing on the 20th May?

 

No idea @CRYSTALJOHN Im a bit of a free spirit. In the sense that Im unreliable and live day to day. Im not one for making plans. However if Im about, I'll pop by if I remember.

 

That’s the date he posted @CRYSTALJOHN. Others maybe interested by the car shows?

 

FYI: Whiteway’s Café (atop Bury Hill) tell me that their Thursday, late Biker nights start from 3rd May when they will be open until 9pm.

PS: And good to see they are putting up a shelter down there...

 

Thanks Stuart

 

Quiet at the box today.

 

Grabbed some free pizza at https://www.woodburners.co.uk/ today before meeting @Chris at Whiteway’s Café & finishing up at Bignor Roman Villa (http://www.visitsoutheastengland.com/things-to-do/bignor-roman-villa-p1132881) where we had a close call with deer crossing the road & got buzzed by a Spitfire. Perfect weather out there.
Shame the Guzzi spoiled the view

 

Never mind the Guzzi....you appear to have missed the elephant in the room...

 

Go on then...

 

Really?

 

I’ve obviously seen more of this than you & am quite used to it by now. It will take you & other’s quite a while to get over the old Cagiva but that beast is a fair match for it.
