Mark,
Choppers seem to take over your
life.
I started out looking for a
Chopper cos I didn't get one when I was young. When I eventually got one a few
years back I had to keep on going, collecting more and more bits, more bikes
and so on.
The garage was full so I had to
find somewhere else to store them, thats when it got expensive. I decided to
convert my loft.
£10,000 later and here I am
sat up here with all my bikes and my computer in a nice big room with carpet
and radiators nice and warm and dry with cupboards full of Chopper bits.
MAD. They do get out for runs in summer but that's about it.
By the way I noticed the
address on the packing for the wheel rim was Hartley Witney. My Grandfather
came from there. I visited Hartley Witney in the mid seventies, probably
changed a bit since then though.
