Hi Alan hope your well,

I have been conversing with George Todd recently, he has now agreed to post and make a contribution to our site, I have been pestered the life out of him to do this - so now that he has agreed lets strike while the iron is hot, please can you send him a link and password for him to log into our forum, he has been on to look and posted me this evening to say he will prepare something, sorry but i was aware your also on his circle of friends list, he has suggested a book to me to read, I will forward the details once i have read it.

Out of interest he tells me he is a very young 86 about the same age as our John bass.

Best regards

Derek Betts

No Problem at all Nobby, it is a usual modification and is forced on us anyway as we can not use standard parts. The look of the barrel is not changed externally.
Cheers,
Alan

Thanks Nigel,
Not having a good time just of late, the scaffolding in my back doesn't seem to like the cold weather much! It should be good to get out in the sun in the new season, even if I can't ride!
See you at Mallory
