TRIUMPHANT TUESDAY

If Steve can have Triumphant thursday I thought I'd have a go at a Tuesday...

Here's a really neat example of what Benny can do with your Triumph...

IT'S ALMOST OVER

DRAGS

Spanish Haul

2000 and fuckin' 10...Yeah! Hooray! Never thought I'd be glad to see the back of it. I can now focus on the coming year with a new website and the camaraderie of good friends.

Over the year or so I have been clicking away. Clicking away at The Drags, The shop and The Hayride. Some of the pictures came out quite well and I have already posted them. Some I forgot about. These are the ones that I shall keep posting up until the New Year. Some might even make it onto the new website and online shop Vintique Cycles So check it out.

I'm a Front Door man ...

The new shop front...Like a victorian sweetshop!

WHERE HAVE I BEEN...

...THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS?

Well it's been busy in the unit trying to get the new shop finished. It's almost there and we have been setting up dealerships and fitting the shop out etc etc.

The Banks don't help even though we fuckin' helped their sorry arses when they had..."insufficient funds" ...in their accounts! TWATS!

Anyway thanks to all my followers and the support of my mates.

You know who you are.

Enjoy the pics...

Shop Class...

...as Soulcraft. Written by shop owner and philosopher Matthew B. Crawford this book should see you through the dark nights that are now enveloping the UK. Bit heavy going but well worth it.

Loss of a Friend

Not been around my Mac the past few weeks as a Close Friend of mine passed away suddenly. He had recently recovered from Terminal Liver Cancer and had been given another chance at life ( and riding his Triumphs!) with a Liver Transplant early on in the year. He came to visit a couple of weeks ago and then went over to a mutual friends place where he suffered a Brain Aneurysm. He never regained consciousness and died a week later in hospital. His partner Caz, sister Kate, Ewen, Leslie and I were with him at the time. He will be sadly missed by all. His funeral went well and was attended by hundreds of friends and colleagues. He used to run a blog giving inspiration and hope to other Cancer patients. He was a great inspiration to everyone...

This is his story for the past 2 years

in the shop today...

Sunday was spent in the shop all day packing stuff up ready for shipping on Tuesday...Took some detail shots of Benny's latest build for Mas....Cooool!

IN THE SHOP TODAY

Helmets and Tanks

Flakeys little run-around

Pics from the Hayride

Found these pics in my collection and don't know why I didn't post them earlier....

VISIT FROM THE MEN FROM THE NORTH

Guy and Pete came down to the Shop today from sunny Yorkshire to take pics of Benny and Zippy's bike. Tell you what ... those bikes sure look cool. The weather wasn't too hot either. Me and Pete sheltered in the Jeep for warmth. We must be getting soft. Check out Pete's blog HERE and go and buy THIS

Scarlett Stayed

...for a couple of days and was in the shop with us learning some bike building skills from Benny. She brought her box of bike bits and Benny helped piece it together.
