And the beat goes on. Pleased to get so many great comments last week from you the readers, it is very pleasing that the blog seems to meet with everyone's tastes. Some comment about the ladies, but most comment about the bikes. Where is this bike from, what sort of bike is that, where did you find these images, where can I buy those parts. Sorry I can't answer most of those questions, as I take no records of where I get the images from, otherwise my PC would die having that much information in it. All I can do is keep providing you with the images and leave the detective work up to you to find. Had a great week last week, was told that I am on the road to a full recovery, that seemed to make things a bit better for my sleep patterns which have been shit for about 8 months now. Life is good, it's filled with great mates, great motorcycles and some great rides up in front of me. 

It also heralds the starting up of a new venture for me, I am planning on doing some custom builds (2-3 a year at the most). PCC, so keep an eye out for the builds as I start them up. You see over the years I have become pretty adept at customising bikes, I've scoured the planet looking for the right parts, I've established some pretty good supply lines, got great painters, metal workers and engineers to assist. I'd like to think that I have a pretty good idea of what is right styling and paint wise, so why not do what you really really enjoy doing. And if you want me to turn my eye to your bike give me a call. That was a shameless plug ha ha. Everyone needs plans, because if you don't have plans you end up in a ditch for the rest of your life. Remember this is not a practice lap, you don't get a warm up or sighting lap, you're here just once.

They drained a canal in Paris and this XJR was one of the finds.

Bet it doesn't go round corners too well.
