Well I'm here, just retired to the well stocked with coffee media centre to try and make sense of the squillions of photos I've taken so far - watch the homepage for some reports soon. There's been some cracking stuff so far...

And a weather update: it's chucking down with rain

That's some of the most obscure journalism i've ever seen "we sent david over in a zeppelin"

wasn`t it the bike magic capervan last year??

Caravan. Apparently it's a hotel this year, there's posh.

It doesn't take much to be posher than a caravan though really. The back of my car, for instance

I like the sound of a capervan.

"I say chaps, let's go for a bit of a caper in the capervan, what ho!"

Isn't there a big bike show in that there London coming up?
Posted: 04/09/2008 15:41

yes, beginning of October. Earls Court. Almost certainly won't need the BM zeppelin to get there though, which is a shame - had a great trip down in it (took two weeks mind)

If you do a good job we'll sort out an engine for 2009

oh and don't forget the duty free's

When was the last time you've travelled around Europe???

Erm - Menorca in May 

^ Ok , don't forget to smuggle alcohol and tobacco products upon which excise duty hasn't  been paid, happy DP

Any BM'ers going to Earls court bike show?
