Say Hello to El'G

Eloisa has got a little sister... Ladies and Gentlefolk, may I introduce to you EL'G :o) (LR, obviously I'm not inferring your a Lady it was just a generalisation, don't take any offence ;o))


Hehehe... Silly Grin Time :o))) (Well there will be this weekend when I pick her up!)

The Honda VFR800Fi... Which means nothing to none of you I know (and me come to think about it!), but she is an awesome bike!

And for the benefit of The Bognor Blade, before he starts, shes quick... Really quick! More than capable of breaking every speed limit in 2nd Gear!

00-60mph - EL'G : 3.3secs - Lamborghini Murcielago : 3.6secs - Merc C 220 CDI : 11.7!
0-100mph - EL'G : 7.8secs - Lamborghini Murcielago : 8.7secs - Merc can't get to 100mph!




So why do I need another bike I here you all cry... Well at the moment I'm totting up 160 miles nearly every day travelling to and from a Clients site and having to contend with the rush hour traffic on the M11, the M25 and the Dartford crossing... Now obviously I have the use of my company car, but the current record for the longest duration taken to achieve this on four wheels stands at six hours forty five minuets... On a bike the average is two hours twenty mins... (It's a No Brainer! Four extra hours down the Pub or in Bed!)



Take Eloisa? I Have been; and she loves it, but I'm clocking up to many miles on her and I'm trying to keep her mileage down for touring... EL'G sole purpose is to eat those Motorway Miles up every day... (Oh and maybe have a bit of fun at the weekends :o) )

400 million spermatozoa and I filtered the fastest, it's in the genes ;o)

Ciao Ciao

Wow you have been busy Dude?

You actually know the Great Masters real name, Im impressed by someone who always says BOWIE is shit??

Now! I wonder how many of your Bloggers agree with you?

Sounds like we have opened a debate?

So who agrees with Fletch, that one of the most influential rock artists of the last centery is boring & shit.

You are on thin ice Dude, hes not only an excellant artist he also helps discover more excellant bands and helps them in the music world. Such as Street Machines & Arcade Fire.

Over to you! well what can we call you as you like hip hop, techno, arcade fire Oh and of course mike oldfield, open minded? No because you think you are always right?

Vote for BOWIE!
