Sailed over on Friday afternoon from Heysham. Got pitched up and sorted both of Shaun's bikes ready for practise Saturday (yesterday) tea time. Weather so far has been pretty good and will have an afternoon out on the mountain bikes today as all is in order.
Lots of great bikes around here, so...
I've started this as the next project after my bike was finished. My dad fancied a van for travelling to spectate at weekend race meetings and it evolved from there. You know how it goes, if we buy this we can do that, and if we do that it can do this.
So, a comfortable van with creature...
Hope everyone had a good Christmas. We've probably all eaten and drunk too much over the festive period, but what's to look forward to in our Calenders for 2017?
Can we have shows and events listed here. First on my list is International Classic Bike Show at Stafford on April 22nd and 23rd...
It's almost that time of year again for the Classic Manx. I'll be going over on 19th August for practise week and am finally taking my Weslake / Triton for a pootle around. My dad last took it around with the VMCC on a parade lap in 1998, so it will be cool to see it go round again.

Classic TT at the Isle of Man starts in just a weeks time. I'm travelling over on Friday and will only be there for practise week, but am really looking forward to the trip.
Taking a couple of bikes over, so will have a ride around the island. Shame my old bike isn't ready, but it will be...
I didn't realise there was an off roader section on here. Here's my old XR400 which I've had for almost 8 years now.
Used for trail riding, but I've also done a few Enduros with it and the bike performed well against newer Crf and KTM's.
It's got the usual upgrades, like Mikuni Pumper carb...
I'm just about at the end of my dry build, but I'll update on here as its taking way longer than I expected.
Bikes a slimline featherbed frame with a Manx type rear end, 750 Weslake / Nourish 8 valve engine with a slick shift gearbox upgraded to 5 speed and a Newby clutch. Loads of other...
