Hi again

just picking up on the George front- yes, the same pub and yes, part of the same lot- it was essentially the Eltham and District Bike Club I believe you are referring to- a crew who still get together now and then- but sadly few of them ever turn up on bikes- (I do!) I suppose age and getting married can ruin a happy relationship! I was a late vocation to bikes- my next brother down was there before me. He worked with 2 guys at the co-op in Woolwich who had 400/4s- and that started it. You will know one of them; I

Sorry about diversifying from the main subject again, but there's more on 'The George' saga in Shoreham.

My missus of 28 years remembers that the Bromley Racing Team bought their CB400/4s from Normand Mobikes in Burnt Ash Lane Bromley (now a Toyota dealer) & there were about 6 or 8 of them.

Have to respond to that- positively!

I saw John Salmon about 18 months ago and his brother- I think hes Paul- at an Eltham and District do in Farnborough. I was a bit late and married (still am, to same missus- 33 yrs) so thefore skint in those day to engage in that malachy! But Dave M was one of them, and duly blew his h/g. As I said in my last post- hes still got it! I see JS, DM, Pat Haverty, and Paul (the treasurer of EDBC) during a few get-to-gethers when I can make it! I'm the old one that turns up on a bike- sadly- The R1 caused some discussions last meet in Shorne.
anyway, I'm also sorry for digressing and If I'm banned form the Form, Ill know why- less chat, more bikes! I'm comming to the Gamecock tonight with my Bro on our 400/4s- so might see ya!
