Welcome to the best little non model/make/marque totally unbiased towards any type of motorcycle blog you can possibly get. Had a few characters last week, who kind of took me to task for posting on FB pages that were marque and type only. Fair enough, but I did have permission to post onto one of these pages, but some guy took exception to that. I tried to explain, "hey this is just for enjoyment, and if you don't want to look at all the great images that we all love and admire, then don't. Upshot was, that I have now left that Tonti page ( even though I have one), but I just couldn't be bothered with the hassle, given how much time I put into it. If you don't like it, delete it. Simple. The other 5 thousand that receive ( and the 10000 odd that find it by themselves)  seem to have no dramas, even most of the other Guzzi pages that I send it to. I've got too many things to do right now. All my workshop equipment is being delivered this afternoon, and the security system is going in. So 18 months later I can say the garage is finished. It's been a long road, but it's signed off and is all legal. Having said that I still cant get in amongst the bikes as I am waiting for my new workshop work stations to arrive, and until they do, I cant hang my tools up. But I have plenty to get on with. Speaking of getting on with it, here's the next blog for your entertainment. ( wish some people would take note of that last word).




A lovely little collection of motorcycles



Function follows form


My Goat, Dunlop


Lust, pure and simple












That left hand turn is going to be pretty tight
Nice, very very tasteful
Form and function all wrapped up in one little lever
















Exactly like my old one.






















A very very tidy Le Man.













































A very lucky young man, that's for sure.







BOOOONNNNGGGGG, what the fuck was that?


















A W12 engine out for a service. Yoikksss




Still a very tasty motorcycle even after all these years


























































How lucky was he, that he didn't get his head caught in the rear wheel of the Ducati










I was looking at this image thinking that it looks like quite a nice bike, then my brain goes " hey you've got one of those". And all of a sudden I realised that I did.













Talk about centralizing mass.


































My home town on a really good day. I still miss the place









Back in the day. They all look so young, Andrew Stroud, Robert Holden, and the 'real' Glen Williams. Robert always had that little smile on his face. he enjoyed his racing that's for sure.















































What an epic day. No words really,


Next Year bring it on
