Testing times at Kentdale Landrover.
Checking to see if it does the things that almost all other vehicles Just Do anyway.
As I have a mate with a Landrover that pisses water in from the top door seal as well it seems like its a common problem.

Not long after there was a Jaguar having the same water spraying on the roof test but I never got a photo of that.

We have a field of goats resident on one of our regular walks. A few kids have appeared but this is one of the curious mum’s noses!

I'm in a few racing groups on Facebook and seeing loads of old pals. Very nostalgic and we all feel 20 something again :mrgreen:

That's what I thought...

Good skills, horrendous application.

Trying to work out what the bike is. Norton Commando?

Brilliant pic,totally encapsulates a golden era in motorcycling. I started riding before the helmet law and can readily identify with this shot. Brings back the memories of riding helmetless with mates in Southern Ireland,they were a bit slower to bring in the lid law.

Love it. 8-)

Its a Laverda and the pilot is apparently Termignoni of exhaust fame.

A Jota? That'll be an original 180 then with R/H gear change. A mate has one. I can see it in the tank and drop bars, just couldn't see a central down pipe.
Or is it a Montjuic? Looks too chunky for that.

Signor Termignoni must have survived that ride then. He made the system for my Ducati. I've been meaning to have a word with him about his prices.
