Celebrated my Triple's Birthday, between the showers.
Forty-four years ago, today, I broke open the crate, assembled the parts, connected the battery and pushed the starter button. It was the first time I had heard a Laverda run. I'd seen a couple in showrooms, but never on the road.
Done more than 150,000 miles, taken it back to Breganze a couple of times (notably as chronicled in 'Bike Magazine' in '80). I've done more Track Days than I can count, met many good people who became friends, had a considerable amount of fun and a couple of endorsements to prove it.
Long may it continue!

Well done Hamish, but your looks or should I say 'locks' haven't improved much in that time...

Brilliant, I would post pictures of my youth on my 3C too but it's too much bloody aggro and no I don't want to use a hosting service.
We were all doing the same thing and it was superb.

Went out for a ride on my 3C, stopped to gas up, went to leave and it started to make an awful grinding noise,I shut it off looked it over, couldn?t find anything amiss, rode it home gently, about a block, grabbed my Buell and continued on with my ride , I figured I?ll check it all out later, pulled the valve cover, clutch cover, found nothing, turns out it was my center stand dragging on the asphalt, feel like an idiot, but glad it was nothing serious

Most are in high res. I have to 'shrink' them to get them on to the forum pages. Can I just post 'full size' on the Calendar Page or is it a wiggle: 'Photobucket', 'Tinder', or the like?Jo said:

For showing the pictures here in the forum incl. the calendar post, the shrinked size is fine. The high resolution is only required if one of the pictures
a) was selected in the poll and then
b) is req?d for calendar production.
So it?s always good to know whether the pictures we are taking into the voting process are also available in high resolution, otherwise the selection
for the calendar doesn?t makes sense!
