MOVING TO PETERBOROUGH!

In bout 13 hours i'll be taking hold of the keys to a lovely garage in Yaxley, on the edge of Peterborough. It's got power, lighting, carpet, an arm chair, massive work bench, a good selection of tools, a laptop holding about 20gb of music and audio books (I can work on the bike whilst listening to Terry Pratchett!) , and kettle. I'm planning on building a home made ramp for my bike (because I can't afford a lift), and getting a small lathe and milling machine so I can build my own parts, but they'll have to wait until i've got money!












Oh, and in the garden it has a large 3 bed semi where I'm gonna keep the missus. :pmsl



So... Any one live round peterbourough, and fancy an inaugural ride out?

Sounds awesome!

I've never thought of listening to audio books whilst working on the bike, but that's a damned good idea, too! My most memorable workshop session was the two days spent swapping engines in my old B1 9r whilst Glastonbury was on the radio. Bloody marvellous - especially with a few cans of Hobgoblin added to the mix! :smt003

"What's wrong lager-boy? Afraid you might taste something?" quality slogan. Personal I prefere to run my bike on petrol though.

I enjoy the books, they keep my mind busy while my hands get on with the job. I find if you think too much you'll cock it up!
