MCN in Germany

1 of 1

I am just sending in a photo of my recent visit to Germany. I was visiting my son who is in the forces, and I couldn’t resist getting an opportunist photo with my latest copy of MCN (which I may add costs the equivelant of £7 over here, but still worth it).

This was taken at Weevelsburg Castle, which was the equivelant of the British “Sandhurst” but for SS Officers only.

My main bike is a Triumph Bonneville, although I collect classic bikes and I have currently got 7, which as a consequence, space is getting tighter at my cottage. But I can’t resist a new project.

I have only just given up racing in classic bike competitions, but I’m still thinking of selling my classics and buying a brand new Ducati 998. Maybe because I’m 70 years old next year and so I’m due for a “mid life crisis”.
