I'd love to go to the Festival of Speed but I should have done it when I was still working - bit expensive now compared with other things I might be doing instead!

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.
The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.

From one of the many (many) display stands, a reverse-head 'modern' Triumph twin.
Have seen reverse-headed non-Hinckley Triumph motors before (in fact I know of a very neat one in the throws of completion at the moment), but this is the first Hinckley I've seen.
