unfortunately I missed the Exeter this year

after all the posts and so much looking forward to Simms etc but my wife became ill and I had to stay home and look after her and the kids. I was gutted but she's now slowly on the mend so hopefully that will give me a little free time to slip in the shed for a bit..
With the trailer project finished and out of the way I can get back onto one of the many bike projects. the most complete of the lot is my old CZ and Rick's suggested i try and get this done for the lands end. something new to look forward too.

just dug it out and made some space and this is how it looks today. before stashing it away i painted everything army green to stop some of the bare metal frame from going rusty so i'll either stick with this paint or not. its not my favourite colour i'll be honest.
still some work to do on the rolling frame. going to fit a bash plate, got to make up some exhausts and rebuild the engine. plus wiring, controls cables and a bunch of other stuff to make it work.
not so sure about the front mudguard. might go back to a hi-level one.

just to compare this picture was taken in the Hotel garage at the end of the 2017 Exeter.
