    8/10. I disagree with the answer to #10. The plunger Norton frame was colloquially called the Garden Gate , not the Golden Gate.

    10/10 - to be expected of course...I didn't even need to think,let alone do a Google.

    Who is going to admit to the Golden Gate Dave? They need the Golden Rivet award.I nearly clicked 1690 for the Bonnie,because they are pretty old eh?

    10/10 - Golden Gate should be Garden Gate. Oops - you clever guys saw that then?

    I have to stop hanging around Paul - I've started learning stuff.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    10 out of 10 were correct.

    Needs a few obscure questions. Those ones are pretty mainstream
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    Good idea.

    We'll do an obscure one too. Like:

    Name the engineering and design firm that has supplied to Coventry, Meriden and Hinckley Trimphs?


    What model was named after them?
