Quote: He started with a Vincent Black Shadow in the mid 1950s and I had a short (scary) ride as pilion along the A1. He is easily upset that he never kept it!Â
Me paw sold his pillar box red Vincent when he had us...swapped it for a renault 4 or summat. ರâ _â ರ
By the age of 8 i understood enough to know this was horrific and felt partially responsible. So when he was offered 14 boxes of bits (that many years earlier has been a complete Vincent) for £100/box i forgo any and all future pocket money contracts in order for the deal to be done.
Me paw is not 80+, still riding very infrequently but still loikes a tinker. Would you still be wanting to do some tinkering wobbo and fit around your wifes care? Not that it really tinkering time of year at the moment.
I admire your ability to weild the TDM at your age...summat I'm sure many of us will only dream of. Xxxx
