All British Rally 2022

[mlb50]

This is one of the biggest motorcycle rallies world wide devoted exclusively to British bikes. It has been organised by the BSA Owners Club of Victoria, Australia for over 44 years, but we did miss out on 2020 and 2021 due to Covid.

The rally is at the same location, Newstead Race Course 100kms north of Melbourne, opening Friday 22nd April and ending Sunday 24th April.

I'll get some photos and post them when I get back.

Maybe one day but not a hope for us - I am still recovering from having a new bionic hip inserted a month ago to repair a previous femur break repaired with pins that failed .
All going well I may be riding again for the National Rally.

This time the "plumber" had an assistant called "robot" for accuracy so hopefully all good this time.
Thanks Beat

It’s like a fail full dog it gets to go home in the back of a Ute

Second last bike's owner is more of a thrill seeker than me, I can see there is at least one spoke missing on the rear and unless my eyesight is deceiving me, the front seems to be short a spoke too.
Nice selection of bikes. Got me wondering how many new bikes were sold out here in the outer reaches of the empire back in the day and how many survivors there are now.

one spoke missing

can't see the spoke. ( no wonder when if it is realy missing )
but no empty spoke hole aider

fail full dog

Don't you hate predictive text it's Faithfull not fail. The bike ran well and I will put a liner in the black tank to seal it backup.
They now have a Steve Martin (known as steve m) memorial trophy for the best for unit single.

but no empty spoke hole aider

Here you go Beat.

looks like an unpopulated spoke dimple to me, but then I haven't had my eyesight checked for a couple of years

[beat]

shame on me..

[Sundodger]

I don't normally scrutinise photographs so closely Beat. I've just started loose assembling my frame and I find the pictures on the forum a good resource to remind me of where things go!!

I wonder WHY this spoke is missing
