Cooking Single
Another travel book.
This one by Paul Carter is, however, a fair bit more interesting than some I’ve read of late.

On A Clear Day
One for our friends in The Bridge Club?
A quick spin to Fife and some shots of my Triumph with the Forth Road Bridge in the background
Sidecar Racing
A fellow club member used to go sidecar racing. This homemade BMW R100 kneeler outfit was one that he took out on the track.
It has Citroen car wheel rims on one off hubs, a one-off one piece bike/sidecar chassis, homemade leading link forks and fuel tanks made from a lampost that he says he came across lying in the road after an accident (he doesn't say whose).
It was reportedly extremely fast and in the right hands could keep up with the solos.
Japanese Bikes
Later on this year, one intrepid adventurer plans to ride his MZ ETZ250 overland from Japan to the UK. A real adventure on a bike of only 250cc.

He has set up a website here where you can follow his progress. As well as his solo machines he also has a couple of sidecar outfits including this one, an MZ ETZ251 with a German Stoye-built SuperElastik or SE sidecar.
