John McGimpsey ownes this 1976 RD400DX which he has just re-inherited from the guy he sold it to years ago,.. 

This RD350LC is just one of a collection of Classic Bikes owned by my long time friend Brian Curly in Preston, Lancashire.

Another long time friend and work colleague Pete Rhodes receives the Best in Show award at the Nabs Head Show Preston 2006.
Whos passing him the award,..   I know do you...?

Jamie Whitham with us at our Bike Show at Scarborough in the mid nineties.  To the far left is Brians son Matt,.  Jamie invited us over to watch the band that evening, as you can see Matt wasn't tall then so he got on his dads shoulders.  Brian asked him what he thought of the female lead singer,  Matt replied  " Shes as flat as an ironing board..."  that raised a cheer from the lads around us...
Jamie warned me not to ask for an autograph as his wrist was painful from signing them all day,..  so Brian and i sent every kid we could find over to Jamies motorhome, i don't think he knows even now

The Triumph X75 belongs to Damien McGouran and the Bonnie was John McGimpseys.
