A very swish looking job Mark.  :)

The coarse remarks of "MadStu" are unwarranted, but then what else can you expect from the _________ ??? (As for the 'PC polis' software at the beginning of this sentence :-X)

Windspeeds in excess of 100mph over the Cairngorm plateau and blizzard conditions down to 300m in many areas by midday tomorrow!  :o :o

We'll try and send it down for your jollity's.  ;)

If you hear 'harrumphing' from the new attachment, check it out for an incumbent 002, afore sending in the terriers to remove rodent vermin!  ;) ;)

Go canny, Bill.

Very tidy job Mark, looks like the chair came with the bike :)

Llanthony? Brecon? Its similar to Snowdonia "if you can't see Snowdon, its raining. If you can, its about to rain".  :'(

Cairngorms sound fun at this time of year Bill  ::)  Mind, its raining here and I'm wearing long sleeves  :o

This is a point that all sidecar builders can remember with clarity, the 'how do I fit this?' moment:

This bloke was a tad more ambitious with the old steel-forming  :D

The learning process can be a bit fraught on a sidecar
