Since I got back into biking after a 23 year lay-off and I started with this my old Deluxe  after a couple of years I moved up to a 400NC which was various colours before it looked like this just before I sold it  Now I've got my CM250 which is changing week by week while I try stuff out to see if I like it  They have all lived in a lean-to outside my back door which started out in life looking like this  over the years it got tired and just a bit shabby  so this year it's had a makeover     still not quite finished but it will be by the time winter is here should be the best overwinter any of my bikes have had to date |

I didn’t know you had a red 250 Terry obviously before my membership on the other forum

Amazing write up Tel. Maybe we should all do our bike history, what a great thread.

Nice post Tel I do like the look of your CM nicely custom built to suit you and look forward to seeing you on it next year ( fingers crossed )

I didn’t know you had a red 250 Terry obviously before my membership on the other forum At it's first meet at Squires broke down with a dodgy spark plug got it sorted though and it got me home  I think the Eagle run out with the FS1E gang was next   Then there was the Rutland camping weekend that was a lot of fun  These meets were all on the original forum that was shut down I allready had the 400 by this time ,so yes before your time  |

That's Spadge real name Sarah ,she was going to buy my 400 of me but she got a leak in her bathroom and her ceiling collapsed so all her motorbike savings went to the plumber and the plasterer and my 400 went elsewhere I think she's still on the other forum and of course on facebook she's still longing for another SD but she has'nt got round to getting one yet and if you're wondering Carl the bloke next to her is Kickstart |

That's a luxury looking lean to! Mine lives like this.  It will live here at some point.  The strip foundations are in and I have the foundation blocks ready to build to floor level but I have to finish this first.  |
