Didn't miss a beat, till I got it handlebar deep here. Wrung out filter foam, drained carb of water and carried on...

Who remembers when these beauties were the short distance commuters choice of transport, we used to call them wiiiing-clunks as that's the noise they made as they changed gear with no clutch.

I had the C90. I took the girlfriend camping to France for 3 weeks on it. 50+ years ago.

A right little goer.

The bike that is.

Come to think of it..... she's my wife now.

Nice snaps but I believe the grills are to deter grave robbers. Not to say that the incumbent isn't inclined to a little drop of AB+

No, the one on the right is Houdini's grave.

Mortsafes were devices that were made of iron or iron-and-stone. The idea was that the weight of them would deter grave robbers.
Oftentimes, they were more complex and designed of heavy iron, padlocked for even greater security.
They could only be removed by the two people who had the keys. Mortsafes were placed over the coffins for about six weeks.
When there was sufficient decay of the corpse, the mortsafe would be removed and used at another grave site.
Over time, groups were formed that made and rented mortsafes out to graveyards, especially those near medical schools.

Another photo from the 1982 blizzards.
This time from my home territory on the Gower peninsula.
The country lanes of Gower were completely impassable due to significant drifting.
Love how people pull together and help each other in adverse conditions - Around here that community spirit is much the same nowadays too .
