Siss

I added a sissy to the TR5 for practical reasons and it came out quite nice. Also changed the back tyre for an Avon Speedmaster 4 X 18. My previous Metzeler Block K was a side car tyre and didn't handle turns too well.

These cool pics of my bike were taken by über cool dude Lenny Schuurmans, the talented man behind the excellent BUBBLE VISOR blog. Thanks to him !

Barn shot

Pretty rad shot of my Tr5 and me in Christian's barn a few month's back. Sent to me by the one and only Jelle Keppens : one hell of a talented photographer and enthusiast of anything loud and gass guzzling with a heavy doze of metal. Check out more of his stuff on Reaper Machines HERE

Café Racer #57

We were asked to shoot some pics for Café Racer mag last month for an article about local South of France bikes. The mag just came out and I was sent these extra shots by J-F Muguet.

The TR5

My clutch gave up on the way there. So typical !

Not sure how my picture ended up in WILD mag #125... Bottom left.

All home

Finally picked up the TR5 from Christian's barn and brought it back home. Had a sketchy ride back in the dark and pooring rain with no front fender nor break, and foggy glasses...

Good to have everything under one roof now.

Man cave done

Couple shots of my newly finished man cave. I sense there will be long nights spent in there. The Falcon, TR5 and Lambretta are all waiting to be taken care of all winter long.

October sunset

October has been amazingly warm and surf has been epic. Sunset rides to the beach are the best.

Something went missing...

I should listen more to people telling me I need to check and tighten every bolt and nut on my old british engine after riding.

I guess I prefer the riding part than the working part. This is how the engine looked when I got back from the bar on sunday...
