Better later than never as the saying goes, a few weeks back the GT attended its first ever show. Even though the car is not finished it was important for it to attend the 50th anniversary meet up of the GT at Market Harborough show ground. I think it was...
For those of you who follow my antics with the BSA Air 3 mopeds, don’t forget its the second world gathering of these bikes (28th & 29th July), for a ride around the lanes burning into the retina of bystanders an image of exquisite beauty. last year we rode out...
Went to a car show today with Nick, who felt it was a good idea to get me out of the house and doing something interesting, it was a nice day sun was out and lots of cars were on show. Needless to say our little display of three Air...
Today is very sunny and I felt like a drive, I found myself in no time at all in Bourton-on-the-Water, which is a very nice place in the sun, mid week when its not so busy. The Cotswold Motoring Museum, was the reason for my visit, and its not bad....

Bit of a last minute spur of the moment end of season show, and considering the 80 degree weather it was a no brainier. It s a lovely museum with lots of V force aircraft, Canberra’s and Vallients plus an air worthy Shackleton and Nimrod 2, all of which one...
Last show of the year for me (possibly one other trip out but as for shows that’s it). Atherstone Village show takes place late each year and is held in the market square which is nice, but it get very very busy with kids and ice lollies so one has...
