Almost my thoughts exactly, except l want a real bike i.e a british one. l really like the new Classic Bonneville.



l have one of these in bits in my garage and have been meaning to re-build it for the last twenty years.




B*llox, can a nice mod resize for me.

Or can someone else re-size and then l'll copy it.

Right.

if there is a girlie version (i suspect that 90lbs would kill me) and someone is prepared to give me a hand with a training regime, then i would be up for that... but it might take a few months to get me fit enough.

Personally I think you're certifiable if you pay to do something like this.
just had a look at that, interesting.

but one line made me howl with laughter....

"This is to be done with the following weight in a bergan. Normal humans: 35lb. Super-humans and/or Geordies: 55lb"

Try the Iron man event.
Rotary selection page - Ironman

They do a short swim (2.4 miles) then a little cycle ride (112 miles) and then a run (marathon distance)!

I look after the swim so if you fancy watching it from the front line this year and competing next year please feel free to join us.

In fact should any YD bod that is also a canoiest fancy joing us please pm me. DaveS - you coming?
