OT: Paging the Cadwell Park-isti
Sun, 22 Nov 2009 15:13:27 +0000
Any recommendations for a half decent hotel/motel near Cadwell Park?
Booked there for a track day in December and don't fancy driving up
there at daft o'clock on a Monday morning.

ridining about 8 d ...

FOAK: Free email
Sun, 22 Nov 2009 11:57:05 +0000
Free email (as in free beer, I suppose). Switching my elderly mum to a
Vodafone PAYG dongle (from dial-up) so she'll need a free
POPable/IMAPable email account. Preferably spam-filtered. Years since
I've used one so what's the best and what's to avoid (I suppose one or
two lines of text-only advertising would be ...

2. If the throttle is still on the right, how do you wave at other
bikers?
3. Do you wave at other bike ...
