Ah, yes Noggy, that would of been Captain Birdseye....Black ZZR 1400, remember him well.
He didn't hang about on that thing, at one point remember seeing him on the back wheel and the boyish grin he had on his face when we stopped for a cuppa at Southend made me realise why we do this. Good on him, he certainly gets about.
