I miss my Viento... There have been a few days recently when I could have been out for a drive in it.
But not quite nice enough to go out on the Harley though.
Still... got my riding course booked with the local police next month.
I definately need the tuition as not ridden a bike for 40 years 
All good fun..
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
Geoff

Rest assured it went to a good home - Tom is a good friend of mine, and we've done a few Nurburgring / Alps trips together in our tins tops.
I have a Blackbird powered Formula 27, so will be really interesting to compare the two side by side, and I'm sure there will be plenty of trips
/ trackdays done together over the coming months / years, so I'll make sure to get photos up so you can keep checking in with it. Looks like a
great car from what I've seen. 
SOLD - F27 Blackbird, F27 ZZR1400, MK Indy Hayabusa, 3 750MC Crossflow Locosts, Ultima GTR - currently got a MX5 powered Locost racing car
