I'm trying to get hold of Donald Lowe who built a replica of the BSA MC1 race bike. Does anyone know how to get hold of Mr Lowe?

When you catch up with him, ask if you can see his desmodromic Manx engine, or his down-scaled 250 Manx. He is one talented mofo....:drool:

Thanks people. Met him at Puke recently, he told us the story of the MC1 - an interesting bike and story.

Quite so, Jello, thanks for the correction. I met them both at the Pukekohe classic fest in 1999 when we were over perving at Ago and the MVs. In my defence though, they have a lot in common : both talented buggers, and keen as hell. Apologies for the misidentification...:rolleyes:
