You have at least 2 months to prepare. Stick an ale in the fridge,
hide the babes, oil and sand the roads if you must. A Yank is on his
way.
Yesterday I spent a ridiculous amount of money on a motorcycle halfway
round the world, sight unseen. It's a '08 BMW R1200GS (I know, hack,
ptooie, a BMW) stored in Heidelberg. I'll fly over around May Day to
pick it up and take a little cruise around the Continent. I figure to
hit the Isles by the time the sun comes out. (I'm practicing my
boorish behavior, just for you guys.) And don't be surprised to see a
bike on the right side of the road, OK?

It is a BMW, where else would we expect to see it?

Oh dear- wasn't Timo selling his relatively late model GS for not
many quatloos?

erm, I meant to say RIGHT side of the road. I think it's a language
problem.
