Wiepig your right!! congrats no farkles in those days. I bought or rather my old old friend Nelson gave me his old bike he's gone now. He was a world war two dispatch rider in the desert. What stories he had to tell I really liked the one about disguising antitank mines inside a pile of camel shite. The terror of the Africa Corp. I wished I had written down his tales. I wonder what he would have thought of me buying a bmw as he did not like as he called them the jerries he saw too much horror in the eight army later in Europe.I think he said the desert was a clean war not like he found later liberating some camp or other in Germany.
