Maybe next year's issue! My own trike's been promised to Wizzy since I started building it. Up to Taz which journal she chooses for hers. Lost in the post?! Never! Not on my shift.

when i got home last night there it was! Did you have words with the posties in my town? if so thnk you . Well done you guys, brilliant. Great article, great pics and great plug for your site too! And to paraphrase Blue`s editorial, that IS what the custom scene is all about.

Our site mate, our site. Its just my name on the logbook. Wouldn't be anything without you lot. I agree it's nice to see the scene returning to "real" bikes built by real people. The megabuck jobbies are nice & can inspire us to build better or just be a source of cool ideas, but for the most part, they inhabit a different planet to the rest of us. I almost always find the bikes in the carpark at shows more interesting than the ones on show, cos they built to be ridden every day in all weathers. Yeah, obviously I got straight onto the Postie grapevine & sorted it for you. We know where you live!

picked up my copy of BSH today! bit of bumper issue for me. not only Muffins trike and the chop of Frank's already mentioned by our glorious leader. the cover bike Ducati is owned by the partner of a good mate of mine. nice to see a local boy in BSH.

The World really is becoming a smaller place -a nationally selling magazine & we know 3 of the guys featured in it. Cool!

Great question Doug. Can't think of a clever answer though.

Don't get me wrong, I love animals, we have a small menagerie here. Just wondered if it would be a hamster or similar.

Odd, that was my first thought. Maybe a small vole for minor dismeanours? What do menageries eat? Are they like budgerigars?

They eat anything they can get hold of. We have two puppies going to the same home today, so only four to go. Keep saying that we are not keeping any, but one of them is so cute it looks like he will be staying.

A couple of minor niggles -the frame was MIG'd, not TIG'd & the radiator's a British Leyland Mini one, not a BMW Mini
Just going by the write up you sent in with the pics which says; The radiator is a BMW Mini item mounted on the front frame down tubesThe TiG/MiG was my error, however. And saving space in the next issue for Manky's trike, Tbone? I have a letter on my desk in which Mr Manky says in his own fair handwriting that his trike will be ready by autumn. It's dated May 2004!
