Hello all,

It's been quite some time since I caught up with the bantam racing scene. Been busy producing offspring (Laura 16months) and work etc.

Anyhow to clear up a confusion I did have 2 bantams when I was racing. The 1st was built by Cyril Lovelock and myself it was big & heavy with green paint and went well and most of the time put in a good performance. 125cc, 38mm carb etc..

The 2nd bike I got from Andy Moulden which he originally built for his son Matt. That was also a 125cc but I sold this bike to Tim Partington for his son to race around 2 years back.

So at this time I don't have any plans to sell my No 1 bike and will be keeping that for a return one day funds/kids etc permitting.

Good to see you all having fun and keep them bikes rubber side down

Cheers
Matt

ok, thanks Matt anyway

I have it on good authority that an agreement to purchase this machine has been reached, and that the transaction shall take place during October. The purchaser is, if I recall correctly, an ex editor of the Bantam Racing Club Magazine.

Hey Peter!
No reports on meetings -- just headlines -- SO! Why didn´t you reply to my posting asking about you "... having a fair old dice with someone..." where you´ve pulled up into second place in the champs table?
...No matter, just to let you know I´m going over on 15th September to see The Boiler and probably going to buy a Bantam engine off him to play with sometime -- all very silly really.
...Go well and keep well,
Cheers!
JayBee (for John-Boy -- just got past 80 whicvh must prove something!)

...Beware the force of gravity -- its there to get you! JayBee.

Suspect I may be the culprit Pete refers to ie. ex BRC Magazine Editor.... It's Aiden Bent's bike, Tom Miller's 002 and piloted by Ned when I was young, skint and impressionable. My existing 175, with quite decent cycle parts but shame about the engine, should be open to offers from November. Chris

Sent you a PM Chris

Tony

Did you get my email Chris? Alan Brown sent me an email notifying me about your 175 for sale. Seemed a good starter.
