    Back in the day they used to do a 'Petite Metisse' looked the same as the bigger Metisse but just smaller. and with a Bultaco engine. I had a lovely red one with a 175 BSA motor for a while, one of the many bikes I regret selling.
    We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box.”

    I know but if I'd kept every bike I owned I wouldn't need a garage, it would be a hanger!

    That rickman is a beaut! Clearly a lot of effort went into it. Though I’ve never heard of them before, could certainly spend a few hours looking at pretty old bikes; have any of you been to the sammy miller motorcycle museum? Maybe a good destination for a ride out. It’s an hour and a half’s ride from Trowbridge. I could plan it for a ride out when we’re allowed out again.

    They have my first bike - well, not the actual one of course ( that was attacked and written off by a bus stop ).

    Good grief, that's one hell of a statement seat
