Nice pics.

Seen that van or one very similar to it in Greystones s few years ago. Those H vans are pretty cool.

Arrrrh, the old Piggy Vans. I used one for a year when I was living down near Grasse, 4 years ago. Same colour, 1961 1900cc, 3 speed, petrol and a real head turner. Fond memories chugging up and down the Route Napoleon. Interesting when pulling away from a standing start as reverse was where 1st should be. Alarmed many a tailgater.

Not me pal. Group off us were out last Sunday on the quay vipers run up Carrick,larne,Ballymena,Antrim area but there's an ever increasing number off msx groups from around your lisburn and surrounding districts.
One group has all the msx colours and regularly are out slip streaming each other. I've named them the multi coloured freight train!

Was in A1 today getting new rubber for the Panzer.

There was a poster on the wall for a charity bike run leaving A1 at 12:00midday yesterday (Sun 5th) for NI Bikers & Trikes or something like that.

Maybe it was something connected to that (thumbs)
If I'm not online.............



I'm probably out on the Bat Bike
