Wotcha. . .All being well, I should be there. Dare say it will be for a late breakfast 'cos I don't do mornings very well. . . . As for the number of pushrods - does this include the clutch pushrod ?

push rods??? Eight!

those two that your feet push down on, when standing up doing trials

the main one for your hands, used for when you are pushing the bike.

the swinging one that you push hard to start the engine.

two for heart valves (or some type of valves)

one that makes the clutch work.

one that swings down, instead of the centre stand.

Did I win?

Wotcha. . I'll probably be on the B.R.U.B - the Big Red Ugly Bike, or "Drifter" as they call 'em.

Wotcha. . . Well what a turnout. It looks like this event has become a victim of it's own success. Still - if nothing else it was a grand day out, and it all looked like this ========> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IUKKE2Ngjg

-----------meantime "Uncle" Alan had taken full advantage of living locally and arrived at 08.30, where I was ushered into the Classic Bike enclosure..I headed directly to the food counter and enjoyed a F-U-L-L breakky with Tea and a wad !!-------------------- and if I may borrow a well-known phrase ??...It all looked like this >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ After, I rode to Gobowen to meet - up with the "Shropshire Buzzards" NACC crowd who had invaded Betty's Tea Rooms within Derwen Colledge ( http://www.derwen.ac.uk/visit/ ) having ridden their 50cc mopeds and Autocycles from just North of Shrewsbury...............Oh dearie me...Looks like I'll HAVE to join in with tea and Cake !!--------So, after an hour of sheer GLUTTONY I wave "Adieu" and the faithful B40 heaves me south to the A5---then the A483 and onto the B4393 with a really stunning run to the Welshpool Road ( A458 ).. A left turn and 1/4 mile further and-----------Ye Gods !!, yet ANOTHER eating establishment in the form of Dinkie's Diner and guess what ??....You've got it, MORE Tea and Cakes ... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.OK, after another hour of good conversation with some Harley guys it's back on the road and then via Ironbridge and home in time for }-------------------- wait for it !---------------- DINNER !!
