    Ebay 320812348207 , hopefully it wont stop recording halfway throgh a 20minute run for no apparent reason like the last one. Its also a lot smaller than the last one (which i cant find, hence the purchase).

    Roll on the 1st june and Spain here we come, all 8 of us!

    This is the vid of last years trip over the "Road af a Thousand Bends", well half of it, not the best bit either, filmed on my £45 Hitachi solid state camera. The problem is that it shuts off just when it started getting interesting, just after the shut off point we catch up with my mate who then has a right go at my brother on the SRAD.

    But this train does not stop at San Domingo.

    To be honest this wasnt the fastest pass over there, the first time i completely lost it and ended up with eyes i couldnt close coz i hadnt blinked in so long and a wet colllar coz i was dribbling and never noticed. I was "In the zone" on that pass. By the time i finished it i had dropped everyone and they found me parked up, collapsed, with a fag in me gob on the outskirts of Tossa.

    Insert you own joke here............

    I don't know how far your going down Billy? But the N332 Murcia to Mazarron ain't bad. Not massive but I've managed to empty many a hire cars fuel tank on that road to Alicante airport, much to Mrs B's disgust :D And the bottom roads good too, fast roads hair pins goats rocks drunken Spaniards with donkeys. All in a days riding in Spain. :)
    Perhaps one day I'll get to ride my bike over there?
    Now, where's Bats, fancy a week at the villa mate?

    I once asked a taxi driver in Malta what side of the road did the Maltese drive on, cos I couldn't work it out by watching them. The answer was "the shady side".

    I've driven more carefully in the Med ever since.

    Just been told by the wife that the camera has arrived, i only ordered it on Monday. The tickets for Cadwell this weekend have also turned up. Shame customs and excise want an extra £15 for the camchain tensioner i ordered from the states though. Bastards!
