Who did I see at Old street in London?
« on: October 23, 2018, 07:10:13 PM »
I was at the Old St roundabout in London when a head popped out of a white van window...'I've got the same bike..I love it' said the guy in the van.
I answered..'are you on the Single overhead Cams forum'?
He replied 'Yes'..
Alas, the pressure of traffic meant that's all that could be said before we parted ways.....
I brake for animals!

Ah, but he might be on .net and not managed to find us.

I do try to contact all the European new members and point them here …

A couple of years back now, but I saw a lovely CB750 in the thick of the London traffic on Fenchurch Street - and just last week a Moto Guzzi cafe racer briefly parked outside the Gherkin. By the time I came back with a plan to photo it it had gone...

It's great to see someting different out and about.

The ULEZ is going to make a bollocks of it for those with old bikes in the London area. I feel for you. But never mind you are getting a new runway so you can watch more of those mega polluting planes.

Just seen historic registered vehicles are exempt. That's something I suppose.
