Ah, to be able to have a pint and still be able to get on your scoot afterwards. With the lowered limits in Scotland one pint could theoretically put you over the limit, something to be wary of when crossing the border.
Nice day for it, I spent it in the barn prepping scoot bodywork for respray.

I went for a lovely ride.... though sadly the scoot is still in storage so I had to take my other bike. Tragedy   |

What you running in the motor in that one Nick?
Saw something similar to that one in the local Tesco yesterday Jimmy. Very low seat height and looks manageable for a shortarse.

is that a hard tail frame? Mine? No, designed to look like one but the whole rear cage pivots and there's a nicely hidden monoshock under the seat. |

Very modest...a polini kit on an ETS set of cases with a 20mm carb. Bought it when Ben was clearing his workshop. Genuine UK SS 90 but minus original engine...love it |

No all good !
He forgot to tighten his nuts up and one came off causing him to weave more than usual.
He was extremely lucky.
I was sent off to get nuts and socket set from my shed , he's lucky a had perfect nuts !
He rode home slowly but sure he's done some damage.

Always packed , a real money spinner !
Not sure if Mick is still around in person, by the taste I think he might be the secret ingredient in the Gutbuster !
I being of smaller appetite had quarter pound , the others had the Monster 1 pound in weight burger with 🌶 chilli , bacon and cheese.
Arse and snout special 😀
