Wow, I don't know what to say Keith, but many thanks for sharing these photos on here.

We've got no real progress to show yet as we've just been locating and acquiring parts, but once all the large parts are sourced we'll get on with building it into a roller, which should then come together quite quickly. Remember, it's just a bare frame so we're pretty much starting from scratch.

Keith

When I was gathering pics for Crazy Horses I found it difficult to find many of the 1965 American tour. Only three events were planned - two for the bikes. The first two at Blackbushe were virtually rained off (I was there on the Sunday and got very wet but did see a few splash through the puddles). It means Woodvale was the one venue where all the cars ran. If you have any shots of that tour I'm sure the folks would be interested.
