RALEIGH RM6 RUNABOUT GONE

The Raleigh Runabout mentioned in an earlier blog was renovated and sold to a very nice new owner from Preston.

NACC SOUTH WEST LINCOLNSHIRE SECTION

The National Autocycle and Cyclemotor Club (NACC) is a national organisation for those who have an interest in almost powerless two wheel motor transport. Mopeds and autocycles to you.

I and Vince Shreeve started the South West Lincolnshire Branch in 2007 and we arranged two runouts in the year. The first was just Vince and I. The second as can be seen from the picture was a little more successful. We have three further runs planned in May, July and September 2008. All are welcome, please contact the blogger for more details.

BLOG RETURN

As with all my previous efforts at diary writing this one stalled back in 2007. Still at work, though due to a couple of sad events in the last year which have reminded me of my mortality, I have decided to "retire" at the end of May.

Since I last added a post I have bought and sold a few Puchs and Honda C90's. I purchased the very tidy and original Puch MV50 registered PHR 658M pictured a short while ago. If you know who owned it before let me know. For some reason it seized when I took it out after passing the MOT and I will shortly be fitting a new barrel and piston.

Fingers crossed that it doesn't happen again.

A bit worried about retirement. Will we be able to manage on the money? Will I be able to survive without the structure of work? Will I ever speak to anyone again who is not a family member (and they don't speak to me anyway). Am I a nobody without a job (or even with a job)? What will I do (I know Susan will suggest loads of things but none of them will appeal)?

We'll see.
