I want one of these...  




I really, really, really want one of those.

(ETA it's not a completely random interest, by the way, my dad was a biker and a lot of my extended family are too. That bike in the picture is a Norton, one of the makes my dad favoured (he had Triumphs too) and that particular one is from the year I was born. I want it. Badly.)

Heh! I don't have a garage though so it'd be an oil patch on the drive. At least it might help keep the weeds down! *g*

I actually haven't passed my bike test, my dad got rid of his bikes just before Sis was starting to think about learning to drive and both she and I were discouraged from ticking that little box of the license application form (showing my age I think, they probably don't have that ticky box anymore!). I have ridden bikes though, more or less legally - the joys of living in the country with private roads and lots of fields... *g*

I was forcibly restraining myself from making motorbike icons last night as well - I may have to give in over the weekend!

I gave way to my needs - as you can see and I need to make a Ducati one - something from the Matrix I think.

I have happy memories sitting on the banks of Loch Lomond watching the sunset with our crash helmets on so the midges couldn't eat us - hehe

Ha! They were my local midges when I grew up - Avon Skin So Soft is the best midge repellent out there. Not entirely sure why... but it really works!

Or Brut aftershave also keeps the nasty blighters away. The stench clearly why!
