Welcome to 2014!
Anyone got a new build planned for this year? Or a rebuild of an old one?
It's my day off today, so I'm just nipping up to Colnbrook, near Heathrow, to pick up some new stainless steel Cherry Bomb exhaust silencers for my truck. It's officially off the road now for the next 3 months for a bit of a spruce up, but got to be MOT'd & back on the streets for early April for a trip to Belgium.
So what are you doing in your shed over the Winter? Or are you mad, brave enough to carry on riding/driving through the snow & rain?

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.
The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.
