Nice ones..

Hard to believe how bikes have changed. Mind you 36 years is quite awhile I suppose...

He will no doubt be very interested in seeing the classic racing at MGP this year then.. Its a sight (& sound!!) to behold - standing at the Grandstand start.

If you're not living on the edge,
you're taking up too much space...

Any thoughts of racing at T.T. M.G.P. or Southern Hundreds.
What racing have you done up to now, and what bikes do you use.

There brilliant captures of time your photographs. I thought my 125 had narrow wheels. What speeds did your Dad reach? Are you coming over for T.T. if not in it.?

Nice surprises come in small parcels.

One of my dads bikes went through a speed trap at 110mph back then, which was nice

What about getting a lid painted up with the family sunburst motif?

I think the Honda logo would have to go

With regards to the pic of the ex Rod Scivyer CR93, I'm sorry to have to disappoint you but I did not sell it until the end of 1967. 1966 was the year I won the British Championship with it. So either you have the date wrong or it isn't that machine. Rod
