here is the scoop.
Blackzippo. AKA Duncan has just boxed his RMX250 up and sent it to South Africa. He is going to do some epic riding on the “Continent”.
Sounds like the adventure of a life time.
Here is the tour leader on his bike……..
Duncan assures me he can keep up the pace and keep out of the tour leader’s roost.LOL
So Duncan, fill the boys in with what you are going to do.
I am so looking forward to your ride report upon your return.

June 26, 2008 at 8:59 pm #105015Hey Zippo, can you do us a favour while you are over that way? Kick that Mugabe fair up the arse and say “that is from Mick”. 👿
Also I think that bike is actually a BSA, what confused you, was it is in Motard set up at the moment, wait until he puts knobbies on it!!!!!
