    Just over a week ago a true gentleman and fine old friend, Mr Ewen Haldane was killed in a bike accident. Hr Haldane was 86 yrs old and still rode regularly. He also turned up to work in his bike shop every day (half day Wednesday) and always had advice to give whether asked or not. Back in the day he raced in over 15 TTs and in 1954 he achieved his best result by finishing 3rd on his 500cc BSA Gold Star, in the Clubman Senior race. He finished 30 second behind the winner but by his own admission he messed up his fuel stop by overshooting and the resulting stop took over 30s longer than it should have.....Imagine that in your own head. Anyway the auld yin was buried yesterday and between 200 and 300 bikes showed up in his honour and delivered a full escort through the town http://www.inverclydenow.com/photostream/15294-biker-procession-for-funeral

    It is not 'tax exempt' The vehicle still requires to be licensed, it's just that it is at nil cost. The bike is not on their system so either it has been scrapped or it has been sitting in a barn waiting to be 'found' since before they computerised their system

    It arrived yesterday. Pretty impressed with the difference in quality between the stormex and the aquasummit that I previously bought......You only get what you pay for. Although I paid £30 for my first Oxford shitty one whilst my boy paid £9 for one out of Aldi or Lidl. His is still in tiptop condition
