UKOPS 7 Update Thread
Today, Day 7 of this UKOPS renewal, is Bounty Hunter Bonanza day - all three events are Bounty Hunters.
Guarantees tonight total £22,500.
That may not sound too ambitious, but Saturday nights can be challenging, as folks like to go out, & also, tonight is likely to be the "main" Bonfire Night, though I assume there will be 4 this year (Fri, Sat, Sun & Mon).
Details to follow.

Here's an iconic RTL - not quite an RLT, but any excuse, eh?
[QUOTE]im probably gonna regret asking but what is a RTL ??

What? WHAT?
Regret asking it? No way. Your life will be forever enriched henceforth, fortified by what you are about to learn.
An RTL is a derivative of the RT, the most successful bus chassis ever, primarily used in London, but later, all over the UK, & the world, & even now they are still being made in India, under Licence.
Here, have a butchers at this.....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTL_(bus)
Impressed yet? You will be if you now have a look at this - it shows where many of the old RTL's now reside, & for what they are used. Note how many - fascinatingly - are in Sri Lanka. There is also one in South Africa, used for "Topless Tours". Hmm.

You will be aware - of course - that the RT & RTL were the forerunner of the RM, aka "Routemaster".
I much preferred the RTL over the RM, & in fact I used to go to school on an RTL. Happy days.
Quite recently, I hapened to visit Brooklands Motor Museum, & they now also house the London Bus Museum (as well as a Concorde!), which includes the most awesome collection of RT & RTL's I have ever seen under one roof.
There you go.....

Want to know more? I could go on, you know.
Hello?
HELLO?
RLT, you still there?
HELLO? Is there anyone there?
even if i dont qualify for ukops 7 tonight i will go to bed knowing that my day hasnt been completely wasted after reading that... i think it may even be worth discussing on tommorow nights show if your on.
And yes, I am doing tomorrow's Show.
If ONLY Orford were on, I could send him right over the edge.
it may be worth saving for a show when you and orford are on together we both know how much he likes listen to you and your interests
They are not a proper bus, not in the classical sense of the word.
They mean nothing to me, nada, zilch, nil points.
I would not cross the road to see one, watch one, get on one, or get under one.
Compared to an RTL, they are like a Trabant up against a Rolls Royce.
Those odious bendy bus monstrosities don't break down very often. RTL's NEVER break down.
The matter is closed, & if you continue to troll in this manner, the thread will be closed, too.
Please, show some respect.
You disappoint me Tommy.
Apologies for that off-topic diversion by Mt T Dyer.
