Admin Jaap Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Ben isn't around, so I'll give Martin the point. Link to comment
Martin Barrett Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thank you. I only got it because of Alex's clues. I should have gone to bed but seemed do able with those last clues. It was very interesting looking through that range of manufacturers, shame I couldn't read much of the websites with my U(nclasified) grade failure at O(rdinary) level French (exam taken at school when 16 years old) It does embarrass me when I meet up with you guys Link to comment

I have ome more 'jewels' to throw in for quiz, sometime latter (if you're all ready and like it) would throw in some. Now which clue helped most? Link to comment

Alex-Corsa Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 And that is what I try to do for a quiz, find bikes that were 'special' (more or less) but they are forgotten. Link to comment
Martin Barrett Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Now which clue helped most? I'll give some of my secrets away You said it was French, so I got my in the back there is a list of all manufacturers by country, just went through the relevant letters and when found one of the right vintage and not just making velocipedes or scooters Google image searched it. Then refined the search into text search when it looked plausible. Link to comment

badmotogoozer Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 I've got that book too. Must remember to bring it in to work and park it beside the computer. Must remember, must remember... what was I supposed to remember? Rj Link to comment

DeBenGuzzi Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 What is this'award'' all about? if no one is guessing and its been a up for a week its eligible for a 'stump' award and 2 weeks no activity is a auto stump award. Its like a quiz point but maybe slightly less devalued? I dunno I can't seem to get either anymore I need some motorcycle books. Link to comment
