It's that time of year again. 

The 2013 Felix Burke is scheduled for 6-7 April this year (2013).

I've sent my entry in. Has/is anyone else?

I hope you have put something suitably stupid in the comments box, we want no sensible people here me lad . This is a stupid weekend for stupid people, there's nothing for you here.

Are you local or loco?

Both I reckon

A bit sleepy on this forum these days What's happened to the ridiculous inane banter we used to get. All got old & sensible perhaps?

Speaking for yourself again Mike?

How's Lynda, your Little Helper?    Is she still push-starting the BMW for you?

Yes, I see what you mean, the jokes section seems quite popular, perhaps we should have one. The content might not go down well with some of our bretheren, although most of them probably don't look at the site anyway.

BTW Linda is not pushing, only trying to get her leg over - the seat that is, she forgot to bring the steps. Have you ever tried to push start a BMW brick - not easy, you're likely to end up with the bike on top of you

She is pushing, look at the smile on his face, he's thinking about all the petrol money he's saving. He;s not called "tight Mike" for nowt yer know.

Now be fair Brian, he did almost  buy that AVO meter at the auction on monday.

Nearly - but I did buy a 30 bob battery charger which actually works after cleaning out the spiders and a bit of soldering.

Now then, could I make a profit by selling it on ebay I wonder

You would of course have to calculate the cost of the solder (probably liberated from somewhere) and the electricity used by the soldering iron (probably paid for by his little pusher) . So no cost ,all profit, your turn to buy the beer , Hooray. Two chances of that, no chance and no f------ chance!

Not long now ............ only 11 days to the Saturday run and a mere 10 days before the Friday fun starts.

Some of the 2013 Felix Burke photographs I took can be seen on my Picasa album here:-

The weekend weather was dry but FFFFrrreeezzzing. There was snow on the hills - but we left it alone.

John's BSA expired three quarters of the way through the trial on Sunday, but the sparkplug hadn't been machined and he'd had it from new!

Brian is now the permanent starter of recalcitrant BSAs having had loads of practice on mine on Sunday.

Mr Beale's Rex shed its belt on Saturday as he was showing us all the pleasantness of the area. He resorted to using his Huntmaster on Sunday.

Undoubtedly the results will be posted in due course.
