Och Aye Up the 'Noo

Five tips on how to survive a BMW motorcycle owners club AGM in Scotland.

Go for a walk along the Moffat riverside to clear the hangover from the malt whiskey tasting session.
Get a £4 pre meeting haircut to use up some of the Scottish bank notes that the cash dispenser dished out.
Make a decision not to purchase a 6 cylinder motorcycle on the basis of limited leg room and not on the fact that it costs more than a medium sized family car.
Eat biscuits.
Discuss the merits of carburettors with a friendly local Ural owner who happened to be passing.

  3. I am just jealous you like that close to so many great countries.

    Yeah sure we have different states we can visit near by, but it isn't the same.

    Thanks for sharing Nikos.

  6. Of more interest Nikos - how was the single malt generously provided by the hosts. Or being Scotland, did you actually have to part with your own money? ;-)

  7. Orestis - maybe Greece should start producing it?

    Bob - here here here here here here

    Trob'tz - keep watching!

    NB - welcome and tahnks for commenting....do you smoke? Sounds like a molatof cocktail to me but the GS vent pipes apppear to do the same.

    VStar lady - no brylcreme...I'm into olive oil products now!
