Proper Motor Cycles for Real Riders

Proper Motor Cycles For Real Riders -

A recent posting on Velocette Motorcycles fb page , reminded me of when Geoff Blanthorn and I were honored by the Velocette Owners Club UK for our trip around the USA tour, on my two MSSs, with their London Touring Trophy for 1985 -

Batteries Not Included -


- Batteries not included -
Had this very nifty desk clock come in, that am gifting to my good friend - Vincenzo Gustavo Murphy. for his little motor museum. Though I did look at it and told him if he was clever, and put mounts on it - would look great on one of his bikes! - as he has both a Velo or two, and a Vincent !
I found it on Ebay, and is the clock Dennis Quinlan had done , and presented to Dommiracer in Ohio.







Lakebay Time and starting again -

Google had informed me that this , my Blog was going to be deleted,  but it seems it has been allowed to continue -

I will be doing a bit of a change to my blog -

 - adding more overall content, that cover my own many interests ,- music, travel, friends, family, photography, making things,

that will allow others a peek into my own life, - in the shed as well as outside of the shed -
