Sontaron Profile Picture!!!

Thanks to the guy/woman/wanker that left a comment one of the blog posts to tell me that I was a "fat ugly c***". 

I moderate all comments and delete the rude or plainly cretinous. This person didn't even have the guts to sign on with a Google id. I have changed the criteria now.

Here's a clip of one of the programmes where the Sontaron is one of the main characters. This from 1975!!!


There are plenty more episodes on YouTube.

After a trip to the FIM Rally in the Czech Republic in 1995 with a riding partner on a Suzuki Savage, I had begun to think that although not actually my cup of tea, with real perseverance, these bikes could be more than 'canteen cowboy' outfits. Near Loch Ness So it was with a bit of trepidation that I picked the bike up from Ken Fulton, the SOC's magazine Editor (at the time), who had in turn ...
