    Carrying bikes

    I’ve done this. I have a dedicated charity shop duvet cover for the very purpose. Just make sure the bike is laid so it can’t move enough to whack any woodwork.

    Towing mirror minefield query…

    A mate of mine is coming over from ‘The Dark Side’ (MH) & is waiting for his new caravan. I’ve been trying to advise on different aspects & thoughts but he (& I) are confused about mirrors. We’ve always used bog standard Milenco Aero something or another’s for both our Xtrail & Jag F Pace so...

    The Good Old Days

    I expect (hope) most of you bikers both ex & current, have been to Sammy Millers Motorcycle Museum in New Milton? Not far from Brockenhurst CAMC site & a fair amount of CL’s in The New Forest. As an ex motorcycle trials rider I can highly recommend it.

    To those who record Freeveiw, which recording device do you use? I’d love to ditch Sky but my Mrs finds it far too easy to record stuff so I can’t get shot of it!

    Well thanks for all the replies about build quality. I’ve just been looking at reviews for Elddis, Bailey, Swift & Coachman. On Google & Tripadvisor. Pretty abysmal for all of them. I’m mean surely management of these companies get feedback? I’d be embarrassed if I was a gaffer.
