  • The Inevitable Warm Up Round 2 Before The Inevitable Returns Inevitably.....

    Yes indeed, caption comp fans......just when you both thought it was all over for another year...or at least hoped it was.....another one appears, just like the bus that you eventually realise stops on the other side of the road to the one you are waiting at........

    As the word spreads throughout Greeves World that 'It's On!' for another year, with all the urgency and speed of a 2,000 year old glacier carving out a new valley in a mountain range, I felt it could be helpful to provide a little extra bonus round for everyone to have a go at before we progress to this year's 'Final!'.....

    This time, the amazing Derry Preston-Cobb and his incredible 'Full Works Invacar' provide a shining example of how a positive spirit and a well honed sense of humour can overcome the worst of life's obstacles.....That, and a works tuned engine, high comp square barrel, 'spannie, paddle hub brakes etc etc....what a legend he truly was.

    Right then, to get things rolling.....

    "Hang on Derry....Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!! Don't open the taps just yet...!! Ha Ha HAAAA Ha Haa HAAA!! The nitrous hose has come off the bottle...!!! HAAAAAA HAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

    OK folks, over to you.....

    Brian.

          Meanwhile.....back at the compo.....

          "Press the horn again Derry.......yep, the brake light keeps coming on..... Hang on a minute.....don't tell me the lads in the comp shop actually used that strange Dr Higgo fella's 'comedy wiring diagram'....".....

          Derry; "But he said he was from the future....and he left in a Police Phonebox that just vanished into thin air....along with a load of 'spares' from round the back of the chicken run.....can the lads make me one?!"

                    Derry; "Yes, of course I did!!!"

                    Eddie; ".......yes, I've just caught a wiff of the fumes and I'm about to keel over......."

                          "I must say Derry, this new fangled 'Gaffa Tape' is rather good.....it'll stick to anything!"

                          Derry; "Yes, and we should only need another two rolls to get it through the MOT....!"

                            The Missing Link!

                            The ill-fated model 24TBS .......... didn't quite cut it as a trials bike, so we put an extra back wheel on it and called it "Invacar".
