Race bikes are the nuts, once the snow fucks off, we can all get back to giving it the berries. Works Christmas do tomorrow for me.

Read it, doesn’t give ewt away.
They are in a bunker in Essex, seen them a few years ago in MCN i think?
They were never made available for sale die to not paying tax on them here in the uk.

Making them available meant owning up to their existence. They told the Inland Revenue they had crushed them all and wrote it off as a loss..... but they hadn’t.
I wonder if this is hype of this acquisition has cost dearly, tax on about 2m is hefty.
