Club Arnage

Just need to find out where to get hold of one of these beauties and get it painted in team colours.

I got a case of the "I wants"  ;D

No, No, No - the use of the singular is incorrrect  ::) - it should be "we"; the verb used is also incorrect  ::) - it should be "need" or "have", the latter supplemented by the imperative prefix "must"  ;D ;D  

Rusty - class thinking as usual from the Brethren,

Mark

Awesome, two birds with one stone....... ;D

No, no, no no!

How can you even think about making poor old me pedal whilst getting pissed, cruel heartless beasts them Brethren must be....

Mind you, a genius parking spot right above a convenient drain!

Will you just allow old folks like me to sit freewheeling?

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Basically, I think they'd stop the race to eyeball this if it was rolling along next to the track.  Just imagine that thing rolling-up to the Champers Bar!!!

Someone in France already built the motorized version  :P

It's a novel contraption and no mistake. But it has several fatal drawbacks however, which completely rule it out in my book.

1. This machine appears to require physical effort. Nothing wrong with that per se, but getting lashed up and exercise have a mutual antipathy when conducted simultaneously. It tends to encourage nausea, never a good thing when you're drinking I find.

2. Where are the toilets? When you youngsters get to my age, you'll find the old waterworks haven't the capacity they used to (mainly on account of a prostrate gland the size of a basket ball, I'll show anyone who wants a look). Personally, I can hold out for about five to six pints but once I've broken the "piss seal", I'm up and down like a yoyo from thereon. What if, whilst hammering down a hill at 40 mph, I was absent minded enough to forget I was on a moving platform and stand up to wander over to the bogs.... ?

3. No fag machine and no peanut/pork scratching cards with topless birds being revealed as the bags are sold. Unless they sell fags behind the bar, and unfortunately this is very rare these days, every five minutes the bloody pedal bar would be pulling in to the nearest newsagents to let the smokers buy twenty Bensons and a bag of smokey bacon and thus may constitute a road traffic hazzard.

4. No Fruit Machine. A popular decision with some, although other folk like a flutter.

So, I reckon it's one of those things like a Sodastream or a home cappuchino maker; it's nice idea in theory. Personally, I can't see it catching on.

PS I'm going to Antigua tomorrow.

All fair points Andy. So, back to the drawing board for those who build the mobile bar.

No, Mr Zarse is just jealous because the Commer cannot rival these facilities.............  

With due respect Mark, that is palpable nonsense. Indeed, I have just obtained some old spirits optics from my local pub to fit inside (and outside) the Commer.

The Commer is fully licenced for the sale of wines, beers, intoxicating liquors and tobacco. Also for dancing, music making and to be on the public highway during licenced hours. It has a function room, pool table, beer garden, good home cooked food, kiddies play area (with a big plastic slightly sinister looking hollow tree) and ample parking.

Beat that!

PS Did I mention I'm going to Antigua tomorrow?

Andy - my apologies, I had forgotten the Tardis-like nature of the Commer, where the warping of the space/time fabric takes on a new meaning, although the re-use of waste by piping direct to the optics is neither healthy nor legal.   Why on earth are you going to Antigua - there's no motorsport there?  ;D ;D

Did you suceed to repair your Commer and make it ready to LM and still have enough time and budget for overseas' trip ?

Or did you located an antiguan spare parts seller who actually have Commer's ones ?  ;D

My Commer is still dead Gilles. But there is a Commer graveyard in Antigua and I intend to have a good old poke around whilst I'm there.

What a surprise didn't know you were going to Antigua. Have a great one Andy see you in June , when maybe you can borrow our bikes!!
