Off the Beaten Track

Travels and adventures, mainly in our 1959 Australian CKD Kombi, preferably off the beaten track. All photos I post are taken by me, all the ones I share aren't, but I wish I had.

Amber nectar … much needed on a 35 mile hilly Hampshire ride in the spring sun on a 90 year old single speed. Flowerpots Bitter from Cheriton.

Getting reacquainted with an old friend this afternoon. I've not ridden the 1933 BSA Silverwings for several years. Bought 13 years ago off an old guy with the wonderful name of Mr Cato for £50, complete but a wreck. Restoration started while on paternity leave for Wilfred :-). New Kenda tyres and Brooks B17 saddle and ready for commute to work tomorrow.

Dinky little Lightning Zipper from the #comeinhandyoneday collection, probably from a jacket pocket. #vintagezipper #lightningzipper

Found some great quality old brass English zippers in the sewing box. Made by Lion. Both short though. #vintagezipper #comeinhandyoneday

Very green laning with the Kempes and Kombi on the Ridgeway. 2011? Too long ago already ... (at Ridgeway)

Green laning with the Kempes a few years ago along the Ridgeway around Marlborough. Off the beaten track. We need to do this again mate! #greenlaning #kempes #zombikombi (at Ridgeway)
