Yeah. Just explain to her that you've been showing 'restraint' and she'll be in to your arms and erm . . .

My old dentist in Gloucester, unfortunately now departed, told me he had 52 bikes!!!
Everytime I went to his surgery he had a different bike under a cover in the actual surgery, bonkers but true.

Not exactly in the same league as some of you guys, but I acquired a set of oil pipes. I de-rusted them and sprayed the up with some vht paint and they seem to have come out ok. Keeps me out of SWMB's way

Lots of rust spots pulling the chrome off. So various rotary wire brushes and emery cloth. Then a rust rust killer and then multiple costs of the vht paint. Supposed not to need a primer just a keyed and clean degreased surface. Yet to fit then that will be the test. But it kept me occupied and as I had the paint twas cheap!!!!!!

Drained the fluids and pulled a few covers off. It's definitely dead. For this year at least.
