The Vinicombe outfit restoration - Anonymous - 29-04-2004 Take a look at the amount of work to reconstruct the Terry Vinicombe 1968 750cc TT winning outfit. It must have been soul-destroying for the owners to see what little was left after the NMC fire. The website is <A HREF="http://www.picketts.ukonline.co.uk/kirby.htm">http://www.picketts.ukonline.co.uk/kirby.htm</A> Short circuit for the Isle of Man (front page story) - what again!! Re: The Vinicombe outfit restoration - Anonymous - 29-04-2004 Those pictures almost reduce me to tears. That outfit and Slippery Sam were the two most important bikes in that place, for me, and they were both substantially destroyed. I wish the Picketts good luck in their restoration, and admire their dedication. I look forward to seeing the BSA when its finished, but in some place where fire regulations are a bit tighter. |
