Well I'm still gobsmacked. Last week at Bassett's Pole I thought the MCE Insurance team had bagged possibly the finest and rarest machines in the area, with the awesome tricked up Hayabusas and B-King Turbo.We turned up on Tuesday this week (20th May) with our helmet-polishing babes ready to push the MCE name in the Interest of Cheap Motorcycle Insurance and what did we come across?
A fully tricked up Boss Hoss! That's a 355 bhp, 5.25 litre (not a typing error- 5.25 litre!) V-8 beast. I have it on good authority that there are less than a dozen of these in th UK. See the video at the bottom of today's blog for the walk-around.
After photographing and videoing 'the Hoss' I staggered back to the MCE babes- still amazed by my find. I started talking bikes to a guy named Gavin (6ft 5 personal bodyguard, built like a brick ****house). 'You must ride a pretty big machine' I remarked. 'Yes, A Honda Rune' he said.
Boss Hoss, Helmet-polishing hotpant-clad babes and now a Rune? What an evening!They only made 1,500 Runes in the WORLD you know.
Gavin let me take photos and a bit of video- check out the bar on the right for the pictures in the 20th slideshow. If you click on any of the images you'll get the full size version.

Which do you prefer? Boss Hoss or Rune? I say Rune- and not just because Gavin was bigger than the Boss Hoss's owner.

And finally, a big thank you to all the MCE Insurance staff that made the trip to Bassetts Pole on some very nice bikes. (Note: got some good photos of camera-shy Emma from MCE this week- if the back of ladies heads is your thing!)
