Ditto.. Didn't Anthony Hopkins once play him in a film? I enjoyed that too..

Wasn't that the fastest Indian, about the bike records at salt lake flats. Cracking film.

No Ray , agree cracking film but that's later. I just found the one I meant, it's called Across the Lake 1988. Worth finding..

That was a great trip down memory lane. Both land and water Bluebirds were beautiful creations, great British engineering, and I can't wait now for Thrust SSC.

A couple of years ago I had a thought provoking trip around the Lakes with the man in mind. Great display & history story in the Lakeland museum, and a nice weekend..
