You need to ask the Mallet when you see him at Kempton as it was Uncle Jim that looked after Bud's bikes.G15 Roy wrote:Can't be the same one I have here, as that's a AJS and recorded built by Eric Burgess.ajscomboman wrote:Bud also rode Matchless, one of which was kept here in the Hampshire area.

It's not just me that thinks that thenspookefoote1956 wrote: Now, the more I see him, the more of a door handle he becomes!
His favourite words of moment - unbelievable, iconic, seminal and eclectic - all used at regular intervals and liberally supplemented by assorted malapropisms. Quite a big door handle in fact.

I thought it was Baldrick too, who is more entertaining than a door handle.

Re: The Motorcycle show
I thought the programes were entertaining. But I have two Triumphs and I love Ducatis. I also have a 1/16 plastic scale model of a Manx Norton so I am surprised Henry didn't turn up to grill me on my deep knowledge of Nortons. Maybe if I had attributed the model to some previous famous owner...

Re: The Motorcycle show
How about his favourite activities?
1. Riding a Norton the length of the UK on TRADE PLATES. Though in fainess, if the appalling reliability of my mates brand new £15k Norton is owt to go by, that's still quite an achievement
2. Overtaking and habitually riding on the wrong side of solid white lines
3. Using a non-road legal Davida pudding basin on a regular basis (ok, maybe thats being a bit picky as it's only likely to affect him unless he adds to the NHS burden as a result)
Perhaps amend 'door handle' to 'male chicken' ?
