Title: CMA toy run.
Post by: Manky Monkey on November 21, 2005, 11:50:12 PM
Haven't got the details to hand at the moment, (borrowing Rainbow's computer), but there's a toy run, organised by the Christian Motorcyclists' Association, on Sunday 4th December, meeting in the carpark of the old Shire Hall building, Reading, Berks, (just off junction 11 of the M4), & riding to the Dr Barnados home in Wokingham. Should be photos of last year's in the rally/show photo bit. 2000 bikes, loads of Santas, great atmosphere. I'll post the start time when I can find it.

I've been invited talk to the local chapter of the Goldwing Owners Club bout NABD.  Not sure what they need to know, since they gave NABD a donation of £12000 this year!!!!!!!

You could give them my bank account number. 12 grand would do very nicely.
I've spent an afternoon with you Bobbi. The problem's more likely to be STOPPING you talking! X

Does that Father Christmas look familiar?

Which one? There were dozens there. Not me. Hopefully we can raise a Manky Christmas Crew of triking Santas for next year's run though.

You can count on dad (Jacko) turning up next year as a Santa on behalf of the Manky crew, he'd love to.  He doesn't know I've volunteered him, but he'll be fine.

Right, that's two of us for a start then. We MUST have all the Mankymobiles finished & on the road by then, surely!!

Can't seem to find these pictures.  By the way, i could always ride my "Boopster" next year if 2 wheels are allowed and I could go as Miss Mistletoe or Miss Christmas.

Thats three of us ;)  Janie.

Santa's little helper! Would be fun. You still got the 125 DragStar then?
If you're looking for the toy run report go to the homepage & click on Rally/Show Photos. Should be top of the list. If it's not there click your refresh button & it should appear.

I was looking for phots of the 3Bs rally yesterday, can't find them - I'm sure you said they were on here somewhere?


Title: Re: CMA toy run.
Post by: Manky Monkey on December 08, 2005, 11:55:25 AM
Yup, they're there. Go to Rally/Show photos, about two thirds of the way down the list. "3 Bs Rally, Berkshire".  ;)

I still have the 125 dragstar - aka "boopster" (as in Betty Boop, thats what she calls her bike).  I can't ride anything bigger until July when my 2 years are up, I only took the small CBT.  But doubt if I'll upgrade the dragstar anyway.

So they are!  Even if it was in Hants..........

Was trying to remember who I met there, think I got most of em but who was this?(http://www.mankymonkeymotors.co.uk/Photos/3bs2005/images/3Bs%20Hants%202005.%20094.jpg)

Erm, not Summer obviously, the other one!

You're right, it WAS 'ampshire wasn't it. I'll inform His Yodliness immediately.
Aah, Summer & Gypsy's trike before it got totalled. Shame. Was that "Hamster"? Was that the same guy who had a pipe & wore a big fur hat -signs himself on 100% Biker as "Wear the fox hat"?

I don't understand the new test procedures at all. Glad I took mine last century! Rainbow passed her bike test earlier this year & now rides a 600 Fazer, restricted to 33bhp. It'll still do 100mph though & she says she's not too bothered about unrestricting it when her two years are up. Busy building her a GS850 Suzuki trike anyway, (RE-building a second hand one), but she'll either need a car licence for that , (taking lessons at the moment), or will have to ride it with L plates & a single seat. All very confusing.
