The weather’s been kind recently, so I hope you’ve been making the most of it. I’ve been sneaking out when I can on the B31. It’s starting well, running fine and is such a hoot, until the front brake cable snapped chasing a modern CCM. Mental note to self – live within your limits and check your bike regularly…
As many of us do, I get tempted by what I haven’t got.The recent Bonhams auction at Stafford hadamyriad of fine machines, some of which I could imagine in my possession, listening to the engine while riding and revelling in the admiration from others at a bikemeet. But every time I jump on the Beeza, or am in the workshop (well, I call it a workshop; it’s an ex pig sty with a load of unfinished, sad looking bikes and cars with some tools scattered liberally) and look at what I have, I quickly realise how lucky I am.
