Happy St Georges Day
 

The one we're not supposed to celebrate.....

But go on - be proud to be English :D

Of course....

Shame I'm half kiwi and half Scottish

Now that IS a shame :lol::lol::lol:

yeap....

wish I was, have a reason to live in Kiwi world then....still, must carry on with trying to get a visa instead....

proud to be English, not proud to live in GB :(

Don't knock it till you've tried somewhere else - in spite of all the problems this is still one of the better places to live believe me.

Ahhh.....England
 

Best place in the world........

England is the major part of the United Kingdom, and one of the most recognized (and visited) spots of land on the planet.

Shakespeare described his native land (England) by writing, “this royal throne of kings...this fortress built by nature...this blessed plot..."

At the pinnacle of its power, the English Empire ruled much of the world, and even today, the lasting impact of its bravery, culture, history and language have made this world a much better place.

Hi, I'm an newie from the UKMOC but I know some of you already. Happy St Georges Day, The Irish colour their beer green on St Patricks, so I spose ours would hav to be red!!? By the way my sister has just emigrated (well they hope to get their 2 year work permits extended) to Auckland, and she is loving it, wants me to move over there.......will consider it if they are permanent residents! :pig: (I love pigs)

Pig pigs or Multistrada pigs ??

The pink grunty type, altho I love the multistrada, can I ask how tall you are? Did you need to have the bike lowered?

:D

Scrumpster, I'm 5'7" and 31" leg - the limit for the bike. Any shorter and it would have to be lowered, but I'm ok with it now I'm used to it.

Nice one Desmondo !!

Popped into a shop this morning and the pretty wench behind the counter didn't know what St George's day was about :o
Had to explain it's the English version of St Patricks day.
"Oh what, like for Scotland?" she says :lol: :lol:

have a go on one first, I struggle on EVERY bike, but can touch down better on a big M/s than I can my 916 which is lowered, and I reckon the 620 m/s may be a bit smaller...note to self, must try one;)

The seat is narrower at the front, which gives a bit more reach to the ground.
