Won't be the first time I've missed the point.

But I would point out that "Roll Britannia" is, not by fiat merely the preference of its members, more oriented towards British roadsters and club bikes.. not the sort of machines most CR types are into. Hence most of the components and pix would not really be appropriate for Dale's site.

And yes Hilary's "picks" are for commercial purposes but I hasten to add most of here get out the drooling towels for a lot of what he's selling. And he takes a jolly good digital photo, too.

If you could host web space for this, that would be great. I'd also love to see more serial number and component lists for some of the classic '70s lightweights like the Raleigh Professional, Peugeot PX-10 etc.
