How old is it?
Mr Dyson might be English, but where are his products made?

On my second. First one lasted about 6 years. I've got the standard upright yellow one that costs about £200. I like it.

This is a real sign of the times. The thread starts with talk of going to a MotoGP round in Europe - presumably a lads tour - and ends up discussing the merits of a vacuum cleaner. Come on guys, man it up a bit!
We shouldn't even know how to turn a Dyson on.... but of course, we all do
Last time I went to Assen it rained. On the way back it rained all through Belgium and France. I did it on my first Falco without a problem, but now I am over 50, I am aching just thinking about it....
Still a good trip though.

Disgusting isn't it, how dare we derail a perfectly good bike thread with talk about Molly Maid
Snap to your experience re the weather, but Belgium and France (north) are ugly bits of the planet that need hiding behind a veil of rain.
