    Is that AMERICAN small or UK large?
    :joy:

    Bear in mind, a UK estate agents idea of a garage isn't much bigger than an 8 x 4 shed to satisfy the paper criteria for upselling :rolleyes:.... w4nkers!

    Thank you, @Wessa. Yes, there is a long road to recovery for many communities in FL, GA, TN and NC and sadly many lives were lost.

    Thanks, @Sandi T. Yes, I hope her arm heals fully and quickly. Her riding buddy shared what was a whole other story about the incident.

    An older man and his wife were on their way to her Dr's appointment (a significant trip for them) and had a feeling/urging to leave very early for it (to the tune of 3 hours!). They were right behind the pair of women riders when the one dropped her bike and hurt her arm. The couple stopped to help and stayed with them throughout the whole mess of dealing with everything. He, being a rider himself, even rode her motorcycle to a safe place, took them to the hospital, and stayed with them throughout the ordeal and providing transportation to them, shuttling his wife to and from her appointment in the midst of helping them. All told he was with them for 9 hours! He was in the right place and had the time to help because he listened to the urging to leave 3 hours early! What a couple! Another testament of the motorcycling community we share.

    Had a trip to the NEC Motorcycle Live, great to see most of the major manufacturers represented, a few were absent, Aprilia for one, however lots to see. I was impressed with some new models, for some reason I really liked the rather quirky look of the Suzuki GSX-S1000, and it felt really comfy, and with a further revised GSXR 1000 K5 engine it should be reasonably quick, with great low and mid range torque. Came across an excellent prepared Hyabusa putting out 440 BHP, lovely welding done by a young enthusiast. I was pleased to see Norton back with a quality tried and tested range of machines, and credit to Indian company TVS Motors who bought the Norton company, and paid out customers who lost money and machines when Stuart Garner committed fraud, he was later convicted and handed a Suspended Sentence. I am doing bits of work on my STRS as time allows, lots more parts Cerakoted and waiting to be fitted. Ride safe all from an ageing Rocker.
