Hi Alan
Thanks for the email and the post.
It's great that your getting all your dads old medals out and you're going to put a tribute together. (That specimen frame sounds really interesting too) The photos of your Minster you sent me are great. It was lovely to see another Minster and I can see the similarities in our frames. It also shows me that Neill at Atlantic boulevard was utterly correct in his guesses about how the paint and chrome should look.
You should get the photos up on here too, especially the ones of your dad racing, they're brilliant. I'd be interested to see Carl's Minster too as it's 'the mans'!
It's good to see he had handlebar mounted cages, so I wasn't far off the mark with mine!
It's funny you bought the transfers as it's Neill from Atlantic Boulevard who's selling them. In order to get them made for my rebuild he had to make a few copies and was resigned to never selling another set!
I've got a photo to send you of another badge that was on my bike, but we were unable to re-create, you might know a bit more about than we could find out.
Enjoy your holiday!
Cheers
Rob
