I'm sure I can see some suspiciously fresh-looking blood on rustyrider's tyre though...
Does he get extra points for actually creating the road kill?
Re: FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - rustyrider - 09-06-13
Why do you think I cropped the picture......

DAMMIT!! Had you said that earlier, I could have provided you with an Austin 7!!
Re: FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - rustyrider - 12-06-13
Can we have a precise definition of vintage? I've currently got a 1971 E Type Jag sitting on my driveway so I'd only need to bring the bike out from the shed round the back.....
Kind of defeats the object of encouraging people to get out on their bikes though.

Re: FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - robby boy - 12-06-13
Defined as you wish it to be, post your pic and the masses will say yeh or neh. :lol

Haha, don't worry about that, two of mine were taken less than 20 feet from my front door

You didn't even move the bike for the "Girl on your bike challenge"!! :lol
Re: FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - ChristoT - 15-06-13
Oi, Rusty, it's 3 days later now! Let's see that Jag! :lol
Re: FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - rustyrider - 15-06-13
OK then, here it is. Although strictly speaking it's not vintage as vintage must be a car built between 1919 and 1930 and it's a 1971, it's still on Californian plates as it was only imported a few weeks ago and it's got a flat tyre. Oh, and in my rush to get the bike out of the shed, take the pic and put it away again before the rain starts, I've just clouted my right hand mirror and broke it off at the base. So I hope the effort is appreciated! Anyone know the best place to get a new mirror from? It won't be right without being able to have a clear view of my elbow while riding.

If this is accepted, the next challenge: Your bike at a live sporting event.

Sharrup, it's good enough for the Foccers! Nice car, BTW! :lol

(15-06-13, 02:52 PM)ChristoT link Wrote: Nice car, BTW! :lolIt isn't, it's a pile of crap. It was bought by a mate in France and the plan was that it was shipped to me (cheaper to ship to the UK), I do just enough to it to get an MoT so it can be registered in the UK and then it goes to France to be completely restored and transferred to French registration (as it is fairly easy to transfer registration on something from another EU country but virtually impossible to register something from outside the EU). Despite that fact that the ad by the dealer in the US described it as mechanically sound, their definition would seem to differ from ours. By mechanically sound you expect the engine to run and it to be driveable at least, not to have no brake hoses or fuel lines, carbs that have been full of water for so long they are seized solid and a starter motor that is permanently engaged so you can't even turn the engine over! We haven't decided what we are going to do with it yet so it is sitting on my driveway until we do......
