Blast From The Past

[Kudoscycles]

Barry Lee World Hot Rod Champion tries a Kudos Secret bike at the recent Classic Car Show at the NEC.
Barry was very impressed, he thought it would make a good paddock transport around the circuits.
Barry and I go back 40 years in the motorsport world. Anyone who supported Hot Rod racing in the 70's & 80's will remember his legendary battles against George Polley.
tom Saunders from London Electric Bike Company - Hampton Wick looks on nervously - Barry had a reputation for either winning or destroying!

Those were good days.

The Super Rods used to float my boat more though.

Anyone else remember the smell of what was presumably Castrol R40 and cooked tyres.

I, along with just about every other spotty 'Erbert, used to put a drop of Castrol R in the tank when I could afford to buy petrol - 4/11d a gallon, pay-days only

Smelled 'Ansome.
