My summer project was building a guitar... but I procrastinated so i guess that'll have to be my winter project.

Just run out of projects
On the lookout for another classic motorbike to rebuild.
Something will turn up.

I've done some cars in the past. You probably know, but there's a code to the adverts
It's an easy fix - AKA I've tried but cocked it up
I don't have the time - AKA I've mucked around with it for ages but can't get it going
No offers - AKA if you offer anything I'll take it
Ran the last time I tried it - AKA about ten years ago, since then it's been outside, uncovered, in all weathers.
Just needs x - AKA and also y,z,a,b,c,d,and e
etc etc

Hope you find something, I'm on the lookout too, not necessarily motorbike but anything engine (outboard, stationary engine) although recently I've been sticking with garden machinery e.g. chainsaws and lawnmowers.

Hope you find something, I'm on the lookout too, not necessarily motorbike but anything engine (outboard, stationary engine) although recently I've been sticking with garden machinery e.g. chainsaws and lawnmowers.

I do up a fair number of mowers, strimmers etc in the Spring - I generally get them for nothing when they won't start after being left over Winter - and sell them on.

This I could get into. Any particular era ? Road, trials, off road ideally. British, Japanese or ?

I prefer the late 50s to late 60s /early 70s two strokes.
Road and competition bikes.

Here's the latest that I've just finished. I'll be doing a few trials on it next year.

Carrying on with a long-term writing project.

Restoring a group of old photographs for my motor racing archive, as well as making inroads into the backlog of material that needs scanning, inputting and cataloguing.

Doing some more bits on my scratch-built Higman superstox model.

My Peugeot 205 project is awaiting suitable funding.

I have a Vindec three-speed roadster which I intend doing an oily rag resto on.

I may build my Kalkhoff into a working bike as I think I have all required components.

I have a mantlepiece clock that needs stripped down and cleaned.

My first winter project is to get both of my elderly relatives back to normal living rather than being in hospital or awaiting hospital care .
