Sue...I didn't know you were keen on motorcycles!!! I did a lot of custom paint on this one after I banged it up in a bad spill. I didn't get a scratch but almost destroyed the bike. The photo was taken after I repaired it. Just thought you might like it. If you're ever in the States I'll let you take it for a spin!!!

...and my current one

Beemers

I had a BMW several years ago and really liked it. Maintenance support for Beemers isn't readily available where I live so I have my eye on a Heritage for my next scooter. I guess I have just a few more years left to ride before I'm too old so "one more" bike might appear in my budget. LOL!!! Both those bikes pictured are beauties!!! Makes me anxious for summer!!!

Hi Sue,

We can ride all year long Neal, arent we lucky?
Frank, I prefer GSs for the off-road capability. You like luxury eh? The LT is a wonderful bike! For those who don't know, this is a bike in a class of it's own. Heated grips, electronic cruise control, soundsystem/CD with 8 speakers, even armrests for the passenger. Do you have the optional communication system, CB radio and GPS receiver as well?

[meydenhart]

Has this thread digressed, or what? Once I get going on THIS subject!
Maybe we should get back to scrolling - here's the LT in wood

[PuzzledMoose]

Threads do seem to have a habit of digressing on here ..lol That's a very nice bike there, Sue - the scrolled one and the real one ...

[uk scroller]

I like my bit of comfort, swich on the heated seat ,flick on the cruse controle,turn up the music , and sit back and ride, -------------------- :biggrin_old
yes we do have a coms. system , woulden't be without it now, also have sat nav, no CB . that seems to have gone out of fashon over here. but it's no "GS," it needs nothing les than tarmac! best bike i've had in 35 years riding!!!!!!!!! (am i realy that old?)
i love your scrolled LT, realy looks good. can i steel your paten?
then we can get this back to scrolling LOL.

Hey Steve

I'd admired your miniature furniture on the webshots site before but I hadn't seen your other site ..

Just been looking at your garden - very nice. I'm a keen gardener here too - started from scratch last year though when we moved over here. Spent a lot of time lifting sod and making vegetable and flower beds..... Quite a challenge to figure out what will grow here and what won't compared with the UK ...

Oh dear - I think i just took this thread off topic again ....

[stevebuk]

hi Ian
my garden looks quite different now, once i have the cabin in place i will post photos of it. I hope to continue with the miniature furniture, but this time i will have a new machine in my arsenal to play with..

Steve, the scrollsaw will really expand your possibilities on mini furniture, which looks awesome already! Dale
