A new purchase this week, not my usual cup of tea but thought worth buying and trying out
Wiped an oily rag over it and went for a trundle to Southwold on it 7 mile round trip in drizzle 😕
Got a very soggy bottom due to silly mudguards

I don't have many "Patina" bikes in my collection. The two I have, I have wrenched on now and then for a couple years now. Only wanting to use mostly old original period parts, finding "the look" has been great fun. I feel the 39 Monark motorbike is there now! Some cool parts on this one, not to mention lots of old Patina.

My last day in California for this visit. 😢. Enjoying the sun and a ride on the 56 Hornet that I leave here to ride when I visit. Picture taken in Solana Beach North of San Diego. Thanks to all of my So.Cal. CABE friends for the hospitality and good rides. Back to March in Michigan and hoping for a quick warmup.
