   So, long story but family health events have stopped me getting anywhere near a bike this year until recently, but finally managed to get out on the V7 Sport. Need to re-solder my 3rd pattern CEV light switch in so we’re daytime only at the mo! Despite being as old as me she always fires up straight away, left to right as you lift the enrichment levers! Anyway, just forgot how lovely this old bike is to ride!

	Looks lovely Paul. I'm sad to report I sold mine a few months ago. Apart from the early Le Mans I think it was all downhill from here! Cheers, Derek DSC_3242 by Derek Wardell, on Flickr

	Cheers chaps. I had to look twice at your pic Derek, thought it was the same shot for a mo!
