oldtimer Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Well boys and girls it's a sad day for me today as all my bikes have now been sold, after a rather wet but enjoyable squires I went back to Hamburg only to take Bad and after a few weeks managed to get back home,Christmas came and went and I got no better. After many tests it seems I have cancer one which is incurable and the out come looks grim so I have sold all my bikes as it was a struggle to ride. I am sure those of you that know me will realise how gutted I feel after riding for 53 years but if I will not give up without a fight and maybe even still get to squires in the cage. Will look in now and again to see what scrapes you have got your selfs in and of course drewpys weird vids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
