I went to this show for the first time.

I dropped in to see Lee and his bike last Saturday. He seems quite normal so I wonder why he would wish to associate himself with a load of 50 somethings who prefer older bikes. Nowt stranger than folk I guess. We managed to get his bike running temporarily as he needs to make some repairs to his lo...

I would suspect Zorded is correct in his suggestion that the pilots are your problem. They certainly were on m...

Tried going down that route but found the modern stand not tall enough for a zed. No Chris. I merely made up some new plates which extended the le...
