7th September 2021 - Life n Grimes.


Evening everyone.


Today's issue we will be dealing with is the continuance riding of Vincent & CBRTIM once he is finally built.

Altho we both love going for a spin on Vincent, we also know that my health is getting worse and there will soon be a time were I will not be able/safe to carry on.

So we are looking at what we can do about this.

1. We know in about 18 months to 3 years its either gonna be too much to ride or the Dr's will finally revoke my Motor Cycle Licence.

This is a subject that my Dr keeps bringing up, but not for last 18 months or so as he is in hiding like most GP's...

2. We know the more riding can do the better it is for my health not just my mental health either. So there is a glimmer of hope still.

3. So we will be riding Vincent as much as we can, when I am well & safe enough to do so.
Hopefully this along with other changes we will make can expand these dates !!

CBRTIM - is now in a major rethink!

Since Friday we have been chatting to Maz and have decided we have come to far to not be able to finish and Ride CBRTIM.

So we are gonna make some major changes to what we had planned!
Not ideal but we have all decided that it is better to make changes so we can get CBRTIM on the rode ASAP.

But we will still be restrained by finances so - more boring days sorting thru my stuff and selling it on to keep the money coming in.

So far have not informed Kev as he is away on holiday and we will hit him with it all when he comes back, unless he pops into the private chat room we have for CBRTIM

So far the changes we have decided on are. (these are subject to change if my health improves after CBRTIM is on the road.

1. No longer will have floor boards just foot pegs (to save Time and Money). If Kev has not started them.

2. we will use original frame number (still there under tacked on new frame number) and Number plate and just inform DVLA of a name change and that the frame has been modified. (will be discussing this with some friends who advise we trust 100%.

3. Only Mural for now will be on the petrol Tank. (may get rest done at a later date health and finances permitting).

4. A very basic spray job as quick as possible after dry build is complete. (again may be changed added too after on the road over winter months.)

There are and will be more changes made, once we have finalised them and they will be added on here.... .....
