Patronising (motorcycling) Celebs

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by comfysofa, Sep 27, 2020.

  1. In the current climate id say most of us are skint....my own build has literally no budget....i just do stuff when i can....then you read puff pieces on motorycling tabloids like MCN pushing electric stuff...personally ive got no problem with electric....its just, sorry its too fucking expensive...and moreso for cars! (all of them seem to omit that nugget of information)

    "I always felt that there would be three Long Ways but life got in the way," says Ewan. "Our lives have changed so much since our last trip, Long Way Down, which was filmed in 2007. We, along with Dave and Russ, all have kids, many of who are going vegan and they talk about sustainability and are quite attuned to what’s going on with our planet. As a result my house in LA has solar panels and I’ve had my 1954 'oval window' VW Beetle converted to electric."

    Yeah Ewan.....ill remember to get my antique car converted to electric...dont worry - i wont forget to get my pad in LA to get solar panels installed...twat.

  19. Well done your Wife for being able to identify an aircraft not just by colour as my Wife does with cars.

    Tells me she’s seen a lovely car but can only tell me it’s colour :mad:
