Re: "The Leather Boys"

I didn't quite get it right. In 1964 I had a Zundapp Bella scooter with a leather flying jacket,silk scarf and gauntlets that came nearly up to the elbows thought I looked cool but must have looked a right birk.It looked a bit better when I got a BSA super rocket in 1966

Thanks Brian . Nice route, good day out, thanks chaps for picking up my jacket lining when I forgot to zip up my tail pack. Knew I need new tyres but was surprised to find the rear down to the cords when I got home
