The journey continues...
#11
Started late in 1983 aged 28, got a CG125 to ride round the cones, then round the block for the test.  Totally f*cked up the emergency stop but examiner said 'I expect you would try harder in a real emergency' and passed me anyway.  Bought a 1969 T100 before I passed my test and though it wonderfully fast after the CG125.  Hid the T100 when my ex bankrupted us!  A couple of years later limped back from holiday in France with a sick motor.  Bought my 1949 350 AJS 16m to tide me over while the rebuild went on (it went on for 11 years!)  Along the way bought a Morini sport, followed by a Morini Strada. Sold the sport (regrets) various MZ's over the years, RG250, Honda trailie, VT250, Benelli 350/4, another two T100's, all sold, Hinckly Bonneville (I killed a deer on that and nearly wrote myself off), FZ1N (regret), Ducati 900 Monster (regret).  Last few years collected a couple of Serows, and a CB250RS - all great fun.

Presently just the original T100, AJS, Strada, a couple of Serows and the CB250Rs - oh and what was running Morini sport with no papers for restoration that was too cheap to ignore, and most of a Morini Kanguru and most of a Serow that were too useful to walk away from.  I think that's it... for the moment Tongue
