You could prop yourself in that sidecar in the last pic, leg out front and yell mush to those that want to pull the go fast trigger! It must be good for about 20km/h, and you get a spare wheel too....

And yes, look at those bikes. There must be a few hiding in there.

There is a car museum up the West coast from Wellington, the name escapes me. Some very nice cars from the golden age...

Happy Birthday Hamish. Those teenage years take forever.... :)

Cheers.

Nick.

Hamish, only 54, you don't look a day over 70!! Happy birthday.

Nick, the museum you are trying to remember is "Southwards Car Museum" http://www.southwardcarmuseum.co.nz/
I'll be there on Sunday for a motorcycle event.

Cheers,
Fraser.
