Re: NLC - Africa Adventure anyone?

Peter, sounds 8) , however, suspect unfortunatly that it might be a little close to my last African adventure and not sure if the bank account will support another one so quickly.

Re: Club Racer, titanium S160 in Edinburgh on Sunday

Yes it was me, managed to get enough time in Ed to take it out for a run (not loving working away constantly at the moment) and not getting much time to look at SE. Managed to get totally lost trying to find a friends house north of Milnathort, but wasn't too bothered as the back roads were :thumbsu...

Had a shot of the Evora

Prior committments meant I could not make the camping this weekend, but as I had a spare hour on Saturday I popped into see the Evora on my way west.
