Not having anything else outside just now, I use mine full time,


I'm guessing you use that motorbike then do you some of the time ?

I'm a fair weather biker, mine stays indoors under wraps until April and comes back in at the end of September.

We find the pickup very useful with the camper removed:

We take rubbish down the tip in it.
We've removed logs in it.
Collected building materials.
Collected rubbish for the local litter pick.
Collected a Land Rover Discovery rear door and extra parts for a friend.
Carried the mountain bikes in the back.
Sat in the back under the canopy in a 4x4 site marshalling.
Sat in the back fence-judging at a ✖-country event.
Towed the horse box.
Towed the car trailer.
Towed the Suzuki using an A-bar.
Used the truck when it snowed.
Sally used it on the nature reserve.
Used it to take materials and tools around the 4x4 site on a maintenance weekend.
Used it as a spare car.

Steve.

Thanks for that list Steve, having read and thought about it, not sure if you get the same but i do get asked to do a lot of favours for people that know i have two pick ups and two different recycling site permits although both are now charging to dispose of stuf and i'm yet to be asked this year.

I can't think why!

Nice, not particularly my 'cup of tea' but anything that's got two wheels, I'm interested. :)

During my youth I owned plenty of sports bikes, then moved to full blown touring bikes,.....never had a custom or trail bike, just not my thing really.
