Hasn't changed that much, they didn't think much of my GT Cortina when I used to take that out, and they still look down their noses at my dads 1920 essex special (it's very special, there's not much essex left). I'm thinking about 2012 when my XL250 is 30 year old and I can take it out on VCC rallies

Peeteey maybe able to give a better description. He was older than you, about the same height as me, wearing his right arm in a sling, short light brown/grey hair

Not a great description, sorry!

Older fella, early 70's maybe, right arm in a sling 'cause he fell off his ladder, very friendly and talkative ... Does a lot of rides, there's one on Tuesdays he invited us along to, used to be just for older bikes but it's really just for anyone like minded now it seems.
Would be interesting to see what they think of my beemer ...

My dad was a member as well, we had several james motorcycles of different years and a big old car, have no idea what is was, i must ask him some time. I used to like looking at the pictures in the magazine they used to put out, was it the hub or something similar.
