Don't worry about avoiding temptation. As you grow older, it will avoid you.

Wrapping two glorious days up.....
Pics of my friend Mario on the rigid A10 (and on the right in the group pic).

I enjoyed the B31. For those who remember Gellard Yamaha in Kambalda and Kalgoorlie in the 70's and 80's; that's Lindsay in the middle. He reckons he made all of his money out of me.....!

No surprise we look happy.....

In conclusion, bikes back in the shed, and a sunset in Maida Vale; looking across to the city of Perth.

Great set of pictures. If I were a rich man I'd head south for the winter. Temps in the low 20's F. I can't even get the shop warm enough to want to work on my bikes, let alone ride them! Just getting soft in my old age, I guess......

The simple honesty of this motor bicycle is very pleasing.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the heads up; just went on line and registered.
My wife has bravely agreed to ride pillion, so we will be on a Super Rocket this time.

Wow! That was a great event for A7/10 enthusiasts and lovers of vintage bikes in general. Thank you, Richard, for alotting the time it takes to link so many photos. I have to say, along with being a great builder, you are a snappy dresser.
