Some lovely old classy cars, bikes and Burrels, Jarretts to smell and touch and as an added pleasure to the day met up with Deano and AJSki2fly purely by fluke. So we swapped mechanical lusts and chatted Morgan as we sauntered around the displays and found this Mike Hailwood TT replica 500cc 4 it almost push started, it fired a few times but failed to run on - the noise was intoxicating with 4 open megaphones. It would be banned nowadays on it's dB count.
The fairing was hand beaten alloy and the attention to detail was stunning on every aspect of it.

It looks like I will be marshalling some of the Lands End trial early next year too as a result of todays visit - I love the event and of course Peter and Charles were great participants, there are a few Morgans competing.
I love attending the tricky stages so I might as well be doing something else that can be combined with bacon butty and coffee consumption, all served from a horse box normally at Simms.
