Nice GP at Newark auto jumble yesterday

That's Lofty's scooter (on the way back from the Derby event) - 'tis a beauty

Rode a large part of the 150 with him & sorted him out with a clutch cable and trunion to get him to finish. Tis indeed a nice scooter....

It is indeed very nice & practical.

It would be a shame were he to be in an accident because somebody failed to see the rear light, though. It surely must be obscured from the side by those panniers.

I hate to be serious about it, but we all know how those responsible for causing accidents & insurers can wriggle out of their responsibilities. He could easily attach a bicycle LED rear light on each pannier that it’s worth suggesting it.

Sensible and fair comment ...

Lofty told me about his cable on the Saturday night & he was very grateful northernpete.
Fair comment about the back light, but I did Euro Lambretta 2014 with him & it didn't seem to obscure the light somehow.

I'll mention it to him though next time I see him.

That must be an interesting ride with those boxes loaded.....

It's off anybody's conscience if he's made aware. Thank you.

However, I love a lot of the Spanish oddities in their own right, but please don't let him fit one of the late tail lights.....
