Bloody Hell Steve, how fast do reckon that goes?
The rider looks rather pleased with himself, and a little bit San Francisco if you ask me. The bicycle clips are a give-away...

I hadn't noticed that. Apparently, if you're a bit handy with the clutch, the 'wheel' stays still and you shoot round like a hamster in his little plastic wheel. |

Hi Steve, Thanks for the mental picture of the Hamster trick I was just thinking it might be a bit of a hand full in a cross wind. Canada Phil |

Welcome back Mark. Hmmmm, Norfolk - Marham then? or maybe Coltishall. Changed that MG engine for a V8 yet? Steve, Thanks - the former rather than the the latter, so the wonderful sound of RB 199s in reheat and the smooth sound of Avons from the Canberras. As to re-engining, 'fraid not - looking to find an early MGB 3-synchro gearbox with overdrive though, as that is pretty much a straight swop for the original and gives a much better/higher cruising speed without sounding as though one is in the middle of a kettle drum.... |
