like you say,lovely place.
years ago when chell was young she entered her triumph that she had just restored in this show,she was nearly as besoted with this triumph as she is with her bongo,

theres a thought a classic bongo show

you could have best original class,best pimped,best wheels,the list goes on and on

emmm theres a thought!!

[Northern Bongolow]

we could invite the current b o t y award winner to judge and give out prizes

Weather looks brill for tomorrow, may go on the BSA but if you see two grumpy old men in a yellow Stag come and say hello. :

........so cooling problems were known before you got a Bongo.

[Northern Bongolow]

for sure!!! that engine had been down that often all the studs had no threads on them,sure i kept helicoil in buisness in the the 80's
still for all its weeknesses it was still one of the classics,
think chell may be paying you a visit soon.

one funny thing i did notice were the people that owned them all looked the same,and my wife would not wear her headscarf
