Passport and tickets in hand I am setting off to the 2007 NEC Motorcycle & Scooter Show in Birmingham, UK. The camera is packed too so there should be plenty of pictures on my Flickr page by the weekend for all of you to enjoy. Right time to go! Keep the rubber side down.

DCU Open Day 2007 (Day 2)
It is over… Wow, what a busy day! I do not think any of us expected today being that busy. Most of the other stands were surprised too. In fact we stayed later today then yesterday, only getting away after 4pm. But why? I hear you ask…well the whole point of the Open Days are…

Have Luggage…Will Travel
The Givi hard luggage is fitted…at last! This ended up being some adventure and the most difficult of my accessories to fit. I originally just wanted the 2 side cases, as the single top box is never enough to meet my requirements. So imagine my surprise when I found out that you can not fit…
