It was good, better than that, it was golden!



see post, The Royal Enfield magazine - Issue 8



even the website www.greenlane.biz seems to be gone!



Paul, where did it go? POOR Tornado! He was almost sure to have made the next issue's 'Bridge photo' shot.



OK, things do come and go, and I must admit, that I have outstanding obligations that are on hold due to time. but what atragedy!



To loose what was a young but so very promising publication. I hope others will agree, that one day, we may see it again.

Anyway, In the spirt of hope, this is the pic I sent in...

I was writing a series on rebuilding a 1955 350 Bullet and had just got to the really interesting bit (does Kenny Everett "Reg Prescott" voice,) about rebuilding the gearbox when Paul told me he was giving up the magazine due to other commitments. Actually, it WAS the interesting bit because from here on it's all re-assembly so there is actually something to show for all the fettling! Anyone interested in the series carrying on? (Silence, tumbleweeds etc...)
REgards, Mark

Hi Chaps,
Let's just say it's on hold.

I learned a lot. How to design in Adobe Indesign. 'Lone Wolf' told me that RE owners didn't want to pay for anything, and he was mostly right. The advertisers were great.

2 years and 8 quarterly issues gave me a good time to gauge the interest for such an organ.

To those that contributed I give a hearty thank you. Each issue was a great deal of work.

'Scalyback', your bike is indeed in Issue 9 on my computer, perhaps one day it will enter the ether.

Meanwhile, I have roads to ride. Amen.

That's great Paul. I got all 8 issues and that nice calendar.



well, It was a quid or a dollar or something per electronic issue, It was quality!



Next time Paul, try to get it inserted in Hitchcock's with a part number, then maybe more might order it!



don't suppose there's any chance of seeing the bridge club page, only my friend Moo asked again the other day.
