About Me

Back in the day......

Started with an old BSA Barracuda 250 for Lin at 17 and an ex-works 125 Dalesman for Vic at the age of 12 .
Both moved on through various British and Jap road bikes and then into the road racing world of Formula one sidecars.
We met when Vic bought my first sidecar outfit. He made it go faster than we ever did......

Finally quit the racing due to financial restraints and divorce!
I continued freelance sidecar passengering for a few drivers until a hard and unexpected meeting with the ground from a horse in early 1995 when I broke my back put paid to that.

10 years on found ourselves attending the Rock & Blues together and thought Yeah, this is cool, let's build a couple of Custom bikes.
Started with a couple of GSXR1100's in hardtail frames and progressed to the Harleys we build today. Photo's coming of the old days
