I know who it is but in that shot he looks more like my mate Phil (a few years ago) than the actual chap. :lol:

Nah, I just watched a lot of American stuff like, On any Sunday, CHiPs, Happy Days and Easy Rider etc. I'd go to pre 65 trails and scrambles and was told stories of Rockers and Cafe Racers. Bikes were varied and meets ups full of different folk looking at everyone's bikes. I remember Superbike mag and riders specials, but then it got all 600 shoot out, bench racing in the pub and people walking round awkwardly in crouching humpback leathers and biking became, well, more divisive I suppose? Each to their own, but seeing that pic was lovely and evocative of a bygone era and how i like to think of biking. :thumbup:

Totally agree. But the old days aren't always better. But them days did shape me.

I still ride to the shops in shorts and flip flops.
Still ride Portimao showing 178 on speedo.

Still crash/tumble my enduro bike every week :obscene-birdiedoublered:

Did you buy Easyriders Mag also???? Almost a porn mag back in the early 80's. Bit like BSH but better.

No wonder the puppy has been a tad fractious. Two recently vacated holes in the gum and a new tooth cutting through.
