I was rather hoping for something closer to home.
When I were a tadpole, the chaps at Bridgwater fair let me ride pillion in the early hours, just before they disassembled their wall and moved on to the next venue (no PC brigade in them days). I was around 9 or 10 at the time. We didn't go all the way to the top of the wall - maybe just 5 or 6 feet above floor level, but that was enough to get me instantly hooked. It's been an ambition of mine to ride the wall ever since.
Unfortunately, since making a few phone calls, I've discovered that Health & Safety have worked their magic. Also, the wall operators are beset with all kinds of snags and clauses from thier insurance companies. Which, in a nutshell, has put the dampers on any dream I had of having another ride.
Thanks a million to all those of you who bothered to reply, but I fear I have sent you on a bit of a wild goose chase. But if'n any of you should know of any operator with enough gumph to let me ride that Indian motorcycle around the wall (i.e: to hell with poxy insurance companies and H&S), then yes - PLEASE put me in contact.
Thanks again for all your help.
