I'll have you know that's nothing like a huge brown seat! If you rummage through photos from the era you'll see just what I mean - some folk should never have been let loose with their mum's sewing machine, a block of sponge rubber and fifteen yards of brown leatherette. In any case, Mrs Nuttall liked to ride pillion, so I'll hear no more about it!
I discovered this blog earlier today and rather than working, I spent my 9hr shift going back through the old entries. It's bloody ace! Well written, amusing and occasionally instructive. Well, to those of us who don't know one end of a cylinder to the other at least!
Keep up the good work! Some stunning pics of lovely bikes that put my two horrid rust-heaps to shame!
Rensh. Hopefully not a squirrel. Guy. Very true. Blue. Ta, so do i. Charlie. You mean mine of course. Phil. Unfortunately it is a huge brown seat. Filmplop. Thanks very much, is there really 9 hours worth ? "Occasionally instructive" need to put a stop to that.
that reversed head bike you did was one of my favourite british bikes...
ReplyDeletebut now, on reflection, you are an animal.
Very cool... in both incarnations.
ReplyDeleteIt's heresy, but I love your incarnation far more. Mainly because it didn't have a huge brown seat.
ReplyDeleteNicest bike ever built. Ever. Ever ever.
