    Would rather like to be aboard next month when she goes to the canyon. But I would have to take an elephant gun to deal with the guys who will walk into your shot!

    Well these are just videos that I'm posting but I'm sure that there are going to be some great clips from that one(May) too. You wouldn't expect to see a steam locomotive running down the middle of the highway though.

    Well I could be quite at home on the "right" side of the road - gas at £2.50 a gallon, pale ales and Sizzlers - Bring it on! - but nothing less than a Mustang thank you!
