I was born in 1947 and at the age of 20 bought a 1957 BSA C15.

Yes, I heard from Bazza last week. Last year he acquired a Royal Enfield to add to his fleet.
 
I've still got the TDM,  which is long in the tooth but still enjoyable. The ER5 was sold for £1 to a friend's grandson and is shinier than it has been for years.
 
Have also got an old BSA and sidecar which is fun but relatively slow - 40mph feels like 80mph.

Hi Martin,
  Nice to hear from you again.  It's good to know you'll be back on 2 wheels soon.  I hope the rust didn't set in too deeply.

  I was planning on getting away for a few days this summer but no plans have been made yet.  It would be nice to meet up with the usual suspects for a few days of family free jollity.

  Regards

Rob

It's been a while since i have posted on here so thought i would say hello and see what everyone is up to. I think i posted a while back that i had to let my bike go about 5 years ago and have been missing it and te great ride outs i had with all you guys. Well finally i am in a position to get back on a bike again later this year. It would be nice to get back in touch and meet up if anyone is up or it. Please get in touch and let me know who is still out there riding and what you have all been up to.

Good-oh Jack.
The M20 was probably ancient even when you got your C15!
