    I have a friend that you would like to meet out here Norway. He restores old motor bikes and is currently working on two from 1924/5. When I had a look I asked where do you get the tyres from to fit, as they are so narrow. He said that they came from India and actually were made for rickshaws. The pressure in the tyres had to be high to keep them on the rims, and 40 m.p.h was maximum speed for safety. He gets bits from all over the world, the forks on one came from South Africa.

    just going to bed now. Had a quick look at BBW's 'post a lie' thread, such a good idea. We all seem to have the same warped sense of humour. Anyway nighty night :emoticon-0113-sleep

    <laugh> -ahh that's different though, as it's not us who believe - just the millions who flock here each year! Like geese heading south signals the start of winter, tourists heading to Inverness signal the start of summer!
