Shush Razz

We don't like talking to people on those phone things, the internet allows us to avoid human interaction.

Very Happy

Which road by Rivermead? Maybe if there are some more meets down in Reading I could get to some. Its well within pushbike distance of Caversham. Only take about 15-20 mins to get there if I was allowed to meet the faces behind the names. . .

The long 40mph road, past the two railway bridges, has the hospital, vauxhall garage. They were behind all of those industrial unit things near the start of the road. Can't remember the name of the road Confused

I don't believe Goose's Bros has ever broken down just because it started to rain slightly. Laughing

Exactly the same fault my YZF had on the way to Cadwell, only it looks like they had been twisted together for more like a couple of years and the cable had gone crispy. (thanks to Keith for finding the problem wire).

Plus even bros's have more tasteful styling than GPZs and don't have their clocks mounted on the tank. Razz

The styling is that of a 'classic 80's sports bike'. Also the clocks on the fuel tank have a handy fuel gauge that actually works and it has a volt meter. Razz

Beat that Bros man. Laughing

True, but it would be unfair to compare a Bros to a wonderful Thundercat. Smile Wink

The GPZ was half good in the 80's, off the boil in the 90's and the laughing stock of the 21st century. Razz

Whereas the bros has aged with dignity. Cool

True, the bros is out of the thudercat's league. Fairer to compare it to an armchair really. Laughing

Before you were born you mean? Laughing The penny farthing was once a very good bike, doesn't mean it can cut it now.
