patsylabrador Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 28th yesterday. We've never been very big on presents, meals out, that kind of stuff so decided it was a good day to treat ourselves. Look what we got : bonneville and before anyone thinks 'midlife crisis' my husband's been riding bikes since he was 16. PS. Sorry I post so much stuff, I'll try to control myself. It's just quite good fun. Think I need to get out more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeckyBoo Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 OMG!! That is one amazing present! An ex used to have a 750Bonneville but it was chopped with ridiculously long forks and a little cushion for a pillion seat right on the rear mudguard. Boy but they do make a lovely noise though. How nice, most people settle for flowers or chocolate!! BeckyBoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaP Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Wow what a wonderful present - a classic - and Happy Anniversary! My OH has been riding since he was 16 too (won't tell you how long that is ) and now ES and DD ride too. In total we currently have 6 bikes so I don't think OH will be getting one for our anniversary Lisa P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
