Thanks @Miq, I intend to.
It's a public holiday over here today, and unusually for our late summer holiday for once it's not raining! In fact it is darn hot!
Went out for a morning spin on the 1899 Rochester, stopped by the old Bunk line in Cholsey. This line runs into Wallingford town off of the main Oxford to London railway. It now runs vintage trains on special days.....

Next weekend Wallingford holds the 'Bunkfest', the UK's largest free music and dancing event, named after this railway. There'll be musical trains then!
It's a glorious day to roll around on a lovely machine.....

I might have to ride another one later, keep riding!
 
...Another vintage rider was there, baby trailer on a 1939 bike,

That was me!
Great seeing you guys, and your sweet bikes out there. I think we all skipped Dudley for this event, and for my part, I don't regret it (although now I can't wait for next swap).

Helmet in trailer is attached to a slumped-over, sleeping toddler. Just let him sleep there while enjoying an al-fresco beer with wife and daughter.
 
Nice photos!
Finally I'm happy with my 1911 National Model 132. Just need some fatter tubs before heading out on a longer ride.
A couple of miles and everything is working.
You will not believe how much work has gone in to this machine to get it rideable.
All pictures taken in Wallingford this evening, still warm.....

I rode 54 miles today; ate a $5 spaghetti lunch at Pizza Di Oro and was almost home when I was stopped by a neighbor.
She asked if I would take these 2 bicycles to save them from the trash.
Yes; I would be glad to.
The Raleigh is my Sweetie's old bike I built for her several years ago, and is on post 17 of this thread.
On This same day 5 years ago, she went on a big 20 mile ride with me.
So, her bike came back home 5 years later, to the DAY!!!
