Eagle

There she is in all her glory, the first motorcycle I ever owned.

At least the first one I remember owning. I loved that scoot. I thought it was so cool the way the wings were the handlebars. It was a good mix of eagle and motorbike, doing justice to both or so I thought at the time. With the benefit of hindsight and the experience of around 25 years of motorcycling I have to say... I was right. Fucking cool!

If I knew how much they sell for now I'd have kept the box, sold it intact with the rest of the set and bought myself a real motorbike.

Sunshine

Sunday 11.45pm. I return home a little defeated, a little deflated. As I sat contemplating, my PC threw up this little ray of sunshine on the screen-saver and took me straight back to Linkert Attacks. So many cool bikes. This is one that stood out for me...

... understated but still gorgeous Pre Unit Triumph chop. Is it finished? I sort of hope so. Never found the owner but I got a couple of good shots of the bike. It lifts the heart.
