Arrived and settled in, at Kaunas after a very very wet journey.
Yesterday was wet cobbles, serious six inch deep floods, missin roads an folks walkin across the motorway - an that was even before we left Riga.
We then rode through torrential rain, the like i ain't seen before, Once again on two way roads whilst one suicidal, Idiot, Lorry driver tried and just succeeded to get past us and the three trucks in front of us.
Got really cold due to waterproofs leakin'. A really hard ride, but hey we're here now until Sunday, Then its on to Poland.
that was Yesterday though and ive just woken up after a good evening eatin' and drikin' and having slept the sleep of the sleepy people, to what looks like its gonna be a beautiful day,
later folks, have a good weekend

Ah yes, STEViE, the well known mandolin playing grammatical error. I believe Lithuania was mentioned & possibly spelt differently; & a 650 Suzuki I think. Why not read this old thread & all will be revealed. http://www.mankymonkeymotors.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=484.0 |

Really enjoyed reading that link. Earlier this year I got a 'phone call from my mate in Malaysia, telling me about a really good bike show in Thailand. Didn't jump on the bike, but did hop on a 'plane, and met him at the show. Damned good party! Met some sound party animals. Here's one of them, Dracula, the most drunk Asian I ever met.

About as scary as a Jaffa Cake. He's a brilliant bloke! Even filed his own teeth to points. He's got a nice VW trike! Here's a piccy and one of my mate Atannazs who I went to meet.

How the hell does he get that on the centre stand!  Are they real studs in the back of his hand, or just trinkets hanging from his bracelet? |

He spends millions building his dream bike & all you're interested in is his bracelet?!
Never occurred to me that Malaysia had a custom bike scene. Very impressive.

The bracelet........I'm about to start bringing a few over. In Thailand, they eat snakes. Attanazs gets the remains, spends hours de-gristling them, drills them out, and makes snake-skeleton necklaces and bracelets. I have some myself, and I'll photograph them later. Aint cheap. He also does Shark-teeth ear-rings. But at the moment there are only three of these necklaces in this country.
Anyone interested?

Stevie's got one of those. No idea where he got it from, but he was wearing it at last year's 3Bs rally.
