About Me

I have come into 2012 with a strong desire to be more healthy and reduce my weight to something more acceptable for a man of my age and height. On the 1st of Jan 2012 at the age of 45 and height of 6ft 2in, I weighed in at 18st 2lbs (that's 256 lbs or 116kg). I have a pretty large frame and have always been able to carry a bit of excess baggage but I think its time to do something about it for my health and energy levels more than anything else. The experts suggest that for a man of my height and age I should be about 13.5 st but I have set myself a target of 15 st (210lbs or 95kg) - thats a planned loss of around 3 st (46lbs or 20kg) This BLOG is a record of my attempt to achieve this goal and I have made it public to help keep me motivated and on track. If you have any comments, thoughts or ideas and suggestions please feel free to leave me a message..

Before and After No1 - Triumph Cub





As there is no news on the BSA at the moment and the bike is still at Steve Gagg's place waiting for the new bits to be made, I have had a number of people mentioning that they have missed the updates so I thought I would take a look back at the bikes that we have built or renovated over the last few years. Most of them are documented in this blog but here are a few before and after pictures to see just what transformation they went through....

First of all here is the Cub. The before picture is actually the very first build where we merely put together the bits that had been bought along with a bit of tidying up. The after picture was the final state of the bike after more than 12 months of development
