  6. As a matter of interest what does he ride at the moment?
     
  7. He has a Royal Enfield Meteor, a modern nod to a 1950s Model G he owned. He also has some Korean 250 cruiser-ish thing.
     
  8. Ha, ha, ha, about 85 MPH is his limit, so he tells me! As for the age ton, he's trying his best.

  9. I can confirm that Uncle Peter, as he is known (we had 3 Peter’s on one EMM trip), is plenty fast enough and has a wealth of stories for the evening beers.
    Although he does have a terrible habit of talking to the ladies (at least one of whom he met in an alley in Toulouse may not have been quite what he thought!)
     
  10. I concur with that 'observation', several of us had to hold him back that evening, to save him from himself....
    He definitely gets worse as he heads towards being an octogenarian! :astonished:

  14. With reference to a previous post of mine, I finished by saying "never say never", and what do you think? I am doing it again this year, the trip to the WDW, and I will be 78 in May, so, as I previously said, there is life in the old dog yet!!
