This is the model of Sunbeam that I had.

Mine cost £30 and my good old bro Dave helped me pick it from a mass of used bikes. Needless to say, mine was not as shiny as this one but had great character, was badly abused by me and I miss it .
1936 500 CCs, Side valve , Girder forks and no rear springs.

This is our river in a good mood!

The river is full of little trout and the dippers and Herons are getting fat!We have otters too so how many fish will survive, I don't know. In October, the salmon come up past here to spawn.

Jack Knife.

My grandpa bought me this knife when I was nine or ten in 1945. It is sixty six years old now and although it was made with wartime steel , it is my most treasured possession.
