  5. Not knocking your man Russ or anything but there's ppl who spin around europe each yr like Mentalist above.

    Didnt Neeves from MCN do a big ttrip to south of spain on one this yr ?
     
  6. I think it's the basis for a program maybe? He up against a car driver. Is it a TG style caper I wonder?
    Pictures are going up on his twitter feed anyway.

  7. Not that i wish to malign mr malkin, but i think you'll find the bike will be 'trailered' around europe, towed by the coat tails of others celebrity/star status, giving rise to mr malkins new found 'star' status...........

  8. youre probably on the money..yet more *yawn* nonsense....why bother??
    i wont be bothering to follow his 'adventures'...then they'll be other 'celebrities' joining him on the worlds most dangerous roads or whatever....i'll be too busy sniffing my toenail clippings to waste time on this.
     
  9. Well, he has it in various petrol stations, judging by the shots. Met him a while back at an open day & he's a pretty genuine bloke. Had a nice blonde on his arm :)

    @RussMalkin: Petrol then Reims http://t.co/IRu29sGC8f

    @RussMalkin: Seems a million miles from london ... Just in a few hours #lussomagazine http://t.co/YnTfwbidxC

  10. Came across as an obnoxious toff to me on long way round. I certainly won't be following it.
     
  11. I wont be watching it cos ive got 3 kids and the only thing i get to watch is the fucking disney channel, cartoon network or Nick Jr. I cant remember the last time i got to watch grown up telly.

  12. As above! Thank god for Sky+ :upyeah:
     
  13. Yeah - its like a pre-requisite for getting on the disney channel is to breath helium constantly. They all sound the same.
     
  14. Make the most of it comfysofa. My boy is now 17 and knocking the back out of a grid girl. It only seems five mins ago I was taking him to the cinema to watch sponge bob the movie!!!!
     
  15. That is yet to come - my oldest is still only 11, youngest, 5. Funnily enough my 2 boys arent interested in bikes atall - in any shape way or form which im kinda glad of...the only reason i ever had a bike to start with is that i got kicked out of the house at 17 and needed transport, a bike seemed like the cheapest option when youre in a bedsit with fuck all money. Got an MTX125 which i thought was great and then someone i made friends with at the time who also had a bike showed me how to file that restrictor out on the frontpipe just by the exhaust port....that was it for me, hooked and have been ever since.
     
  16. Grid girl? you talking about one of the dolly birds that holds the umberella's...?
     
  17. Yes I am afraid so
     
  18. Afraid so! - i always wondered who was sorting them out! jeez id be proud of your son for pulling something like that...! sod pics of the bikes post some of her up!

    Which one is she - i have to go look now....the i can in all confidence say i know someone who doing one of those...! That is fantasic!
