Editor's Intro
Hello/goodbye
21 December 2011
Strange thing, press deadlines. I’m writing this editorial in mid-November, but it’s for the Jan/Feb issue of T&G. So with the chance of you having already having over-indulged in the Christmas spirit being more than likely, I would like to wish you all a happy and fruitful new year. Let’s hope that 2012 is going to be a positive one.
Fuelish pump prices
19 October 2011.
Are we being ripped off on fuel prices? What do you think is a reasonable price for a litre of the combustible stuff – 75p or £1?
The buck stops here
17 August 2011.
“I’ve found the keys that went missing two weeks ago,” said the missus on the phone: “You know; the ones you said you hadn’t seen – I’ve just found them in your shed, next to the battery charger”! Despite me pointing out the fact that it was her that had used the battery charger last, it didn’t seem to make any difference – it was still my fault!
Changing times
15 June 2011.
It’s that time of year when exciting things start happening with lots of new bike launches taking place. Peugeot is launching the Citystar and the e-Vivacity (the manufacturer’s first eco entry into the UK scooter market). Not to be left out, Piaggio is relaunching the iconic Vespa PX after a brief period out of production. Also featured this issue is something a little ‘off-piste’ for us – the launch of the KTM Duke.
Days of future past
20 April 2011.
In some ways, this particular edition of T&G is unique as we have news of not one, not even two, but three scooter giveaway competitions.
Goodbye Suzi
16 February 2011.
I’m writing this on a cold and damp January morning – much like any typical winter’s day. But this day is no typical day – it’s the day I finally say goodbye to the Suzuki Burgman.
Busy, busy, busy
15 December 2010.
At this time of the year, you’d think that things would start to wind down for the winter season, but not a bit of it. After the last issue went to press, there was little or no time to spare before riding off to Germany for the Intermot Show.
Where’s all the time gone?
20 October 2010.
I don’t know about you, but to me, this year seems to have just shot by. It only seems like yesterday that those first sunny days of spring heralded the start of the 2010 main riding season.
Senile and proud of it
18 August 2010.
Have you ever had that scenario where you put something down and then never see it again? It happened to me recently when I was out testing not only scooters, but clothing products as well. I had two different pairs of riding gloves under my seat when I left, but I can’t remember if I brought two pairs back!
Moving with the times
17 June 2010.
