As you know the sidecar went for its SVA the other week- but 20miles from the test centre the lads got a call to say it was cancelled. With a few phones calls they eventually got to centre for it to be tested, it failed. All fixable though. 🛠 #LetsDoThis
Huge thank you Tracie and her team at @TescoTotonCom for their very kind donation of soft drinks. 😘 #Donations #SoftDrinks #Pop #ThankYou
Well today the day. Early start for a couple of the lads taking the sidecar down to Exeter for its SVA. Well done to all involved- it’s not just a waiting game 🤞🏼🤞🏼 #sidecar #sva #waitinggame #goodluck #Exeter

Today marks the centenary of the explosion at Chilwell shell filling factory, the largest civilian death toll on British soil during WW1. 139 people were killed in the explosion. It's unbelievable to think that the factory was running again within 18 hours. #nottingham
