Dahma Bums 2

Had these photo`s sent from Len of some rallies with the infamous Dahma Bums s.c. The first couple are from Bridlington about 93/94 maybe.

the top pic is Len & me then you`ve got me "talking" & Sully "listening"

Bottom pic is Emma, sharon, me & Dunsy
Next up are from the NSRA farmyard party at Ganton. Don`t remember much about this other than drinking Blastaways & dancing in a barn. In one of the pictures you might spot John Bramley. John turned up from nowhere, went away for the weekend with us then returned home & swiftly joined H.S.C.        a sensible move!

What no pub!

Far be it for me to advertise a product like Starbucks but here`s an advert for Starbucks, although its extremely subliminal

Whilst trawling through the internet looking for interesting scooter related stuff it seems its only us Brits who ride their scooters to the pub. Nice little clip though, well done STARBUCKS.

Whitley Bay

Found this on youtube, like it says its from 1989. My first national rally was whitley bay 1991 but the some of the images from this clip are just like my memories. Such as the police road block, I think it was Stigger who produced his CBT to the police, to which they replied" whats one of these?" There`s some good riding shots on here though, just think how old some of people are on this clip, early 20`s probably or maybe teens. Don`t get down hearted though, we`re all still so young!!!

Old Holborn

Scooters tend to get passed around between club members or local riders & this one is no exception. I first spotted it in the window of Len`s Scooters Shipley around 1991 when i had my first vespa & Len`s was one of only a few local dealers. Fast foward to the end of the 90`s when the other Len (Dahma Bums s.c. , not Lens scooters ) bought it from a guy in brighouse. Len kept it & messed around with it for a few years until selling it to me as a non runner in about 2002. Club member Blaggy got involved & with his help we got back on the road. I ran it for a few years until passing it on to another club member, Pants. Currently still owned by Pants although i think it could be making an appearance on ebay in the near future.

I.N.S

Maybe because Dinosaur jnr covered "just like heaven" , but these two songs just go together! enjoy.

Big Wednesday

Managed to make it down to the club meeting last night. There was a good turn out & it was good to be out again on a warm evening. We had a cool little ride into Holmfirth & went to Hervey`s wine bar which is an excellent spot to park up & have a little drink. Very sophisticated!
