Don't do it Howard!
Sorry, I didn't see this post till last night, but all the bushes, etc were changed for club items early on in my 'tenure'. Like you, I was struck by the suspension's harshness (t ... |

Sorry, guys, I'd missed all the interest with the euphoria of getting my pictures on the other strand! The first owner (Dave Collings) seemed to have a "thing" about little fibre-glass blist ... |
