Very clean & tidy looking trike Rick. You fancy one then? Is that the handbrake pointing downwards on the righthand side?

 Roll Eyes Taz read my words again (not for sale), front fork link makes for better stearing, i think Jay Jay would have liked the trike but not at the price the chap had spent £25000 plus.

Yes, I tried to get him to take my Rover 75 (seen in background of pics) as a swapsie but strangely he declined.  If my car had been cleaner, the colour would have been a perfect match for his trike.  I love Servi-Cars and this put me in mind of one plus it had loads of storage space for all the crap I carry around with me.

£25,000 - nice but not that nice - can think of much better ways to spend that type of dosh but if I win the £66 million on the Euro tonight well perhaps I will make an offer!

Hey trikerpete, fancy making me a trike out of my Rover - only 19000 on the clock and two new tyres on the back.  Roll Eyes

Not the one that is the reason for your site name is it?  Grin  Great name by the way.  If I was to go down that route, my site name would be BuggerAllPatience (as my mates would attest).

If a genuine offer, let me know what you have got.

Cheers, JayJay

Thanks Taz - friendly bunch on here so it's easy to feel at home.

Really liked the detail in the Alton photos you took (Hampshire bike meet 22nd April 2009).

See you tomorrow, JayJay  Smiley
