MFMC


Mean Fuckers Motorcycle Club cafe racer line up at the Brands Hatch "Festival of a Thousand Bikes" show.
Early 90's.
From left to right, Kojo, Dixie, Perry and myself.
What was great about this event was you got to ride 4 laps around the Brands Hatch race circuit. They put all the bikes in different categories throughout the day. I think we were in the 50's/60's custom class or something like that. There would be about 50 bikes out in each group with a marshal going around at about 60mph. You were not allowed to overtake the marshal under any circumstances. A parade really. So what the 4 us would do is all ride round at the back of the pack really slowly for the first 2 laps pretending the bikes were not running right. Then when we had built up almost a whole lap of empty track in front of us we would get on it and race each other flat out for the last 2 laps with all the track marshal's freaking out and waving flags at us to slowdown. We did this for 3 or 4 years. The only scary moment I had was one year when I was cranked right over on the Norton at the fast Clearways corner, hanging on for dear life feeling pretty pleased with my performance when Perry went around me on the outside! The last place I expected to see anyone, it frightened the life out of me, he was flying. He ended up on the grass just before Brabham straight and I felt for sure he was going down but he held it. He was and still is a great rider, really very good. The best out of all of us. Good times. Of course the ride home was a whole other race, if you know what I mean.

Van Dabi Dozi


Gentry found a couple of old van (a Dodge me thinks) belt buckles at a flea market. He then sent them over to Sonny to get painted, Sonny nailed it of course, then Gentry wrapped the painted buckles up and sent them to us as Christmas presents!!! what a top bloke Gentry is. I welled up when I opened the box.

Da Plane, Da Plane




















We had a booth at a bike and plane show organised by Ahbe racer over at Chino Airport. I was well excited, I like planes, especially old ones. There were tons of them just sort of lying around. Later in the day hangers were opened and all the restored stuff was wheeled out and flown. Watching a Mustang fire up and taxi to the runway just 50 yards from where our booth was made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. This show has great potential. Look for another go around in the spring.

Don Lowe.


This car made a huge impact on me and Max when we first saw it in The Rodders Journal about 15 years ago. I had a shitty '32 Roadster and Max had a nice 34 3 window coupe. Don Lowes 5 window still has the same effect now as it did back then! Damn what a car!

Toshi San!


Do you need this?

Hurry Up Harry Come On


Prince Harry out for a ride on his Hog. Is this a good or a bad thing? Who gives a shit. Although it would be sort of cool if the king of Britain rides. Not that Harry is going to be king anytime soon mind you.

Soon...
