Title: First showing at a classic car show in Staffordshire
Post by: StokeMF on 27, May, 2014 - 11:05:57
This was the first showing of my C5 since restoration early this year.

I was at the Endon Well Dressing in Staffordshire and thought it may make a few people smile seeing it. Amazing how many people came up to me and asked about it, many of them knew exactly what it was but had never seen one. Fathers were telling their kids about what it was, I'm sure it was a welcome and unexpected addition to the show.

The sharper eyed amongst you will probably notice the yellow wheel rim on the front wheel. 5 minutes before the procession from The Plough pub in Endon to the well, the inner tube blew. No spare and being a bit frantic at this point I cannibalised my daughter's balance bike. It worked.

Helmet and goggles for effect.
