Fit like Dave?.

Aye Aye Woodsman.  Nae bad loon.  Nae bad at a'  Foos yersel mannie an' foos yer doos?  You'll be pleased to know that Oldmeldrum is still the same, hasn't changed much since the last time I drove through it (Think theres a new big roundabout that takes you off to Inverurie).

Aside from that, you made a good choice in the West coast.  Great biking roads there on the Co. Mayo side.

Get yer duck oil in early and get cracking with the paint-brush, as methinks we're in for another bitch of a winter like we had 2 years ago (with the minus 20C).  How can anyone forget those baltic temps?  I think I'm gonna remove my front mudguard on the FJ and hunt down a 120/80/16 motocross nobbly for the front.  Already have the screws to hammer into me back tyre tread!

(WHAT?!!? - I hear all these sunny-weather-all-the-time-Americans and Australians-who-never-rider-in-snow cry?  "he hammers 1/2 inch woodscrews into the tread of his rear tyre for grip?")

Well, doesn't everyone do it?  Go google super bike ice racing, and see the tyres on those machines.

Now - picture an FJ with the same set up.  Fun and games?
