New years trials at Bracken Rocks

Simple

A very busy picture, of which the true meaning of racing has been lost in this complex world of the internet and harsh rules, I remember a conversation with Tim and his frustration when trying to build his bikes. What's happened to the real love of riding? Has it been lost? Or just deeper underground?

If it's been lost then I'll post it with a Wanted Notice, if it's gone underground I'll make sure it stays there.

Fwd: As magpies fight in the low autumn sun..............

But more on magpies later, this gear head season has been massive. Road trips in the low light have not taken anything from the riding in fact they have enhanced the whole experience.  The shovel never saw the road, cause I was just having so much fun on the sporty, you know that bike that I nearly sold, well actually I did sell but the deal fell through.  Best laid plans the sporty £££ was going into a rod, but hey that's the way it goes.

So now I'm left with a very poorly shovel, a cracking sporty that if I sold I could never really replace with a bike that would do the same job, for sure bmw, guzzi(nick), or a modern triumph would start on the button and go around corners, but so would a Honda.

And so to vintage racers (as above) this was the best day this year........and not a custom? bike in sight. My long and enlightening conversation the Odgie sowed a seed or two
