Bikes

Had some time in the garage today. Rearranged the bikes so I can get to the 1928 Ariel and make some progress.



Swapped out the kickstart-less Burman Q box with the one I rebuilt (with a kick start):-



This is the old one (no kickstart). Got to take the clutch off this for the other box.:-



The 1928 Ariel ohv engine is back on the bench and I'm going to try to get it finished this time:-




A couple of pics for Beales - some of the fleet:-


The old 1954 Velo I had off Den. Must of had it 15 years now. Done a fair few miles on this old un:-



And the 38 Ariel Red Hunter 500 I got off Welch. I've been using this for a fair long while too. Complete with temporary Stealth tank (BBQ paint works a treat):-

Project `Fast As A Shark'



My return to swimming continues unabated - loads of lengths at the Link Centre today with no coffin dodgers to ...erm.....dodge. Managed to do some proper front crawl breathing as well.
