But we are, aren't we? That's the whole point of this club...

Original design but with string-back gloves gripping the wheel.

My well used and abused Austin 7 Ruby could just about reach 55mph going of the edge of Beachy Head, so count me in !!!!

I've never encountered so much chat about something we all know we're not supposed to talk about.

I think that the stickers should be £100 each and the left over cash put towards buying those unfortunate MGB owners a nice TR6 or something decent.

They sell for £2-£3 so would hope they will complete a sticker run for us at similar price. I agree that anything over that price would be a bit silly...and frankly, I'd look elsewhere if their quote was beyond this price. Realistically it's got to be lower than this as there's the cost of postage to each of our homes too.

Ref' FFS or FFC? Try this for size smile


I prefer this one, it sort of covers old farts (me), on old bikes too

I think £5.50p for the stickers or £55 for a badge. biggrin

Could be worse:

I'm in. 4 please!

We've 2 old Land Rovers which might reach 55 downhill with a following wind, an MGB which probably sees 55mph on its way up to triple digits, and an MG Midget which is actually pretty comfortable at a nice gentle 55, so we've got all the bases covered.
