Thought I had better introduce myself, my name is Terry Clarke, middle name begins with W hence my username is terryw, should have kept it simple and just used my name.
Joined the forum the end of 2011 and found it very interesting and informative, but as a basic user I did not post.
My first interest in Greeves began in 1958 aged 13 when I cycled to scrambles at Clifton and Kniveton in Derbyshire. Just read Out Front! which brought back many memories.
A Francis Barnett was my first motorcycle costing the princely sum of £17.10s, followed by a 250 Greeves Sports Twin bought in 1963 from a cousin, unfortunately I have lost all details of this motorcycle.
I'm now looking to buy a 25DC or similar to use for local runs, it would be ideal to find a good condition sorted example rather than one that had been just restored and not ridden.
Just as an aside, my first Leading Link magazine was number 168, wondered who the rider was on the front of 167.
A very Happy New Year to all members
