I am looking for a hi res picture of Roy East preferably with one of his bikes. In riding gear would be ideal. I know it is a big ask but we want to make this series a successful as possible to build on in the future.

Does anyone have contact with Roy's family who could be a source of a photo if they are OK with it.

I know this isn't what you're looking for Greg but how cool is the photo from the 1957 ISDT? Easty looks 16 years old! Is it just me or does anyone else reckon Dr Zimmer, the Jawa guy looks like Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther movies  ;D.

Firko do you have the second one in a reasonably high resolution as that is a cracker of a shot showing bike detail, period riding gear and it is easy to identify the rider 8). If you do can you pleae email it to me

Sorry Greg, that's all I've got....a lo-res found somewhere on the 'net years ago. I agree, it is a great shot taken at Hawkestone with fellow Aussie Ray Fisher, also Metisse mounted. I heard from Vern Grayson and he's indicated that he'll be trying to come down from Qld with his infamous Cheney Triumph.

Well it sadens me to report the short story, my pre-65 mount wont be ready for the first round of the series ::)

Neither will Beggars Jawa endevours by the sound of it ::)

But, the silver lining is Beggar, Brownie and myself can make it to the Working-Bee on this comingSunday the 14 of July.

I have a German UNBREAKO brush cutter to chase the snakes out of the tyre walls thing.

Beggar is bringing an oxy-set with welding and braising rods and a cutting head!

Beggar is also bringing an inverter stick welder and electrodes for the Heaven Generator, just in-case. 

He can also bring a paint spray pot with charged gas bottles to push it if needed? Let us/me know!

Should we stop at Macca's? for  breakfast? or is that on too?
If so? what time should we all be there?

Remember, we have a few events coming up at this complex now, and the more of us that can make it to this Sunday's Working-Bee=the easier it will be and the sooner we can hit the frog and toad for a relaxed drive home.

A hell of a lot has already been done by the hard working Stalwarts of the club, we just have to tidy up, fine tune :) and have a BBQ to boot!

See you on Sunday if you can make it for a few hours :)
