It looks like something i built out of my Lego City kits in the 80s and I want one forthwith.

As a man who owned a Mini Cooper Sport that was made of rust, and who is absolutely useless at practical things, I actually shudder at the idea of owning something like this. Well, no: I love the *idea* of it. The realities may be somewhat different...

Sounds like an ideal Sunday! Well, maybe without the first bit.
OH I SEE
I want this. I want this so badly. @rarebutnobodycares.bsky.social - thought of you! www.carandclassic.com/l/C1940950 #carsky #autosky
Humble enough to say I'd likely be reliant on you too, Dusty! Thank you for helping the community out!
Mission accomplished! Total travel time: 24 hours, 17 minutes. Total mileage: 1,055.7. Thank you to all the awesome folk on here who picked up an Internet stranger when he was down. I am tremendously grateful to you all. Now, bed. #motosky #mototrip
That made me smile :)
Cheers Dusty!
Thanks mate!
Happy birthday Reef!
Final pitstop. Total miles in saddle: 1,003.3 Total time in saddle: 22hrs 56mins. #motosky #mototrip
If I may be so bold, I have a suggestion...
I love this series. More pls.
Love the lid!
Oh no! Is that tonight? Gutted.
I see youre one of the cool kids too. Though I forgive you being a Packers fan 😉

Wonder what that guy who said I knew nothing about #F1 when I called Sainz innocent thinks of this? www.the-race.com/formula-1/sa...
Thats a nice welcome home.
Nooooooooooo
#wales
Yup, plus the fuel...
Thanks Jayne. I was on this very vessel back in the mid-/late-ninties!
He has spendid facial hair. Wise old chap.
Yup, it's a principality.
That is such an excellent idea.
We all know thats worse.
THE FERRY PORT HAS A CAT #catsky #catsofbluesky #mototrip
Thanks pal.
Her choice of headwear for such an occasion is quite something. And I say that as someone from the motherland.
Home time. #motosky #mototrip #ireland
Bang on.
Thanks Jerry. I really appreciate your kind words. 🧡
Thanks Nial. Succinctly put. 🧡
Beautiful place. So peaceful.
Thanks Tiger 🧡
Thats SpeedStar. You hit the nail on the head. 🧡
Thanks Dusty 🧡
Thanks Katie 🧡
Thanks Chris. Wise advice.
Thanks FKP!
@horseknuckler.bsky.social - even the FT know Oracle are the only ones that will do business with OpenAI.
Calling it a day. Head is not in a good place, I dropped the bike (it and I are both fine), everything feels like a struggle and I cried in a coffee shop. Better just parking it for the day. Ferry home tomorrow. #motosky #mototrip #Ireland #depression #bpd
I took the ferry myself! Hopefully you make it back on two weeks soon!
Dollar Bay, Churchtown, Templetown (the former headquarters of the Knights Templar). #motosky #mototrip #ireland
All is well in Raven's world now!
Pleasure is all mine, mate! Are you back home now?
Cheers Dusty.
Hook Lighthouse. Windy doesn't even begin to describe it. #motosky #mototrip #ireland
Same, mate.
I'll be doing similar tomorrow before Saturday's ferry to Pembroke!
Dublin, Blessington Lakes, Sally Gap, Glendalough, Laragh, Wicklow, Brittas Bay, Arklow, Courtown, Cahore, Gorey, Enniscorthy, Wexford. Time in saddle so far: I don't know, but it must be a lot. Distance: Far. #motosky #mototrip #ireland
HOW DARE YOU
Excellent opening three.
How tasteful.
Do it! Would totally buy!
Less of a bark, but still a nice purr :)
Share from your photo app?
I'd actually be fine with an automatic one. Id treat it like a baby GT, so perfect happy to cruise. I've driven both the V6 S and the V8 R and theyre with engaging enough despite the lack of gears.
I desperately want one. Have done for years. Can now afford a decent one, but hesitant because my experience with a new JLR vehicle was abysmal. Such a shame. Truly one of the greatest looking cars of all time.
Yah. I work in the industry.
Oracle's business is pretty flat without this. The risk (read: stupidity) of this deal is why Oracle are doing this deal, not anyone else. Desperation, helps them pump their own share price.
But James, have you considered how McLaren will deal with their BIG problem (that NO-ONE knows about)? [Insert 6,000 word article here, none of which is relevant. Pls like and subscribe and buy these tangentially-related payapa socks from my Shopify site, thx]
Very true, Tim!
Which of us are? You know, I don't love it. Super capable machine, way outclasses its rider, I just don't love it or feel any emotional connection to it.
Got a good photo out of it, though. #motosky #mototravel #ireland
Mildly
Not sure about this weather. #motosky #ireland
"It's more dumb-ass than Dumas."
I can't wait for the tears when this all goes bang and people lose their shirts: "BUT THERE WERE NO SIGNS!"
Such a brilliant album.
No biking today. Probably for the best. Tired and mood on a downward slope, so early night with a book. Night folks.
Look after yourself, Tee. Hope you find something that can keep you occupied and in a better place. You've got this, mate 💪🏻
These are joyous.
I say this as someone who lives in an era where there is cause to say "what the fuck?" rather regularly, but... WHAT THE FUCK?
The Bel Air. Beautiful.
It's looking good!
Every one of these snaps is amazing!
Some very minor, misty rain. Though the next few days is supposed to be worse. Thankfully, those are the days I shall actually be getting on with some work.
Once again, the governing body fails to explain their batshit crazy decision making with any kind of clarity. I truly believe that the FIA's adjudication is not fit for purpose. I think they just roll some fucking dice in Race Control.
OF COURSE NOT (I left the aubergine 😉)
Dusty - the food was incredible!
Thanks mate. Very lucky to be able to do this. First long distance trip on my bike, and it's been great so far!
Thanks Adele. It's been my pleasure to share!
Take him with you.
Day two, done. Total saddle time: 12hrs 10mins. #motosky #mototrip #ireland
Passed through Lusk too!
Skerries. #motosky #mototrip
Pretty good, Dusty!
I'm glad I bought a ComfortAir seat, put it that way!
Love this photo!
But he looks so humble in that photo!
Hey! Give Max a break. It's tough dragging a three-wheeled 1994 Ford Mondeo estate around. If only they hadn't spent all that money on catering.
