Fun For Classic Motorcycle Fans This Weekend
Don’t you just love it when the weather forecast is good and the coming weekend there are events on both Saturday and Sunday that are just a pleasant bimble away on your motorcycle of choice?
Yep, me too.
This weekend is just one of those.
On Saturday (well actually all weekend) is the Royal Enfield Open Weekend [...]
Coupes Moto Legende – Part Deux
If you like classic bikes, racing and the idea of spending a few days in France then Coupes Moto Legende could be just your cup of tea.
We certainly thought it sounded like ours and having not been touring abroad for a while we thought we would join an organised tour and do the [...]
Coupes Moto Legende 2009 – Part One

If you’ve been around motorcycling any length of time, especially in classic bike circles, then you’ve probably heard of On Any Sunday featuring Steve McQueen.
Recently this was on special offer so we decided to get a copy for review.
I have to say it was much better than I anticipated and I thoroughly enjoyed it and [...]
Way To Go by Geoff Hill – A Review
This is an unusual, but still entertaining, book because it is two books in one, or rather the stories of two motorcycle journeys for the price of one, if you will.
First up we have the trip of Geoff and his friend Patrick on two brand new Royal Enfield Bullets from the factory in India back [...]
Old Man On A Bike Review
I have an addiction….to motorcycle travel books. Luckily my addiction is being fed at the moment and the latest to be finished is Old Man on a Bike by Simon Gandolfi.
I am sad to have finished this book as it was rather comforting
to snuggle down with it and be transported to somewhere in Central
or [...]
Jack Daniels TT T-Shirt
Classic Motorcycles purveyors of lots of great Classic goodies on which to spend your hard-earned have just launched another t-shirt in their Isle Of Man 2009 TT range.
This is a particularly splendid t-shirt in the Jack Daniels style as you can see from the photo.
It is printed on both sides with the famous TT circuit [...]
Top Gear Ride Vietnam
I’m not normally in the habit of praising Top Gear, mainly because of the anti-motorcycle views of Jeremy Clarkson, despite both of his co-presenters being avid motorcyclists (or maybe because of, who knows?).
Anyhow last night’s Top Gear was a gem.
The three presenters were given 15 million Vietnamese dong with which to buy a [...]
