How's it going
« on: December 20, 2010, 01:01:24 AM »
Hi,

What a great site - glad to have come across it. Just in time too as
I start on a bit of a winter(s) project - its a case of the triumph of hope
over experience. When I see some of the bike on this site I am filled with
an equal measure of enthusiasm and despair - I'll have to wait and see
which wins out in the end. A Tatty 550 to a natty 550!!!

I'll take a few pics and no doubt be talking to you along the way.

Pop over to www.sohc.co.uk and chat to the UK/Euro mob.

Same software so no confusion.
(Mostly) same members.
Use the same name so that we recognise you!

welcome. a bit of advice on projects. never worry about the whole thing. it's a series of small tasks. progress is made even if you clean one bolt.

Hi zzpete, I remember reading them as a kid - I thought those guys were so cool - I wanted to be a Freak Brother like some kids wanted to be a fireman. The innocence of youth!
