Yes,  A pleasant couple of hours chatting.  Jeremy also has a lovely Velocette, and also sails.  Although you can sleep aboard his pocket cruiser, which would not be recommended in any of my old racing dinghies.  Rather taken with his Schilling, and I rather like the day boat version as well.

Jeremy's R65 does indeed have a Rev Light, which was quite ironic, really.  It also has only 12,000 miles on it.  Should be good for a while yet, then.  Only slight damage to be seen on it was probably cause in the garage, rather that out on the road.......Very nice.  Too good to start cutting bits off of.

Cheers

And (just to prove I am a heartless bastard) you can tell him about why you are known as Rev Light .....:-)

Are you referring to the metal I have removed from my bike or the three stone I have lost since last September?
