Very spartan three wheeler with a square barrel Guzzi engine on the A50 near Uttoxeter on Thursday.
Not a TriKing or one of the kits I’ve seen previously.

V9 on the A14 Huntingdon roundabout this morning and a nice black and white Cali on the A14 near Cambridge this afternoon.

Chrome tanked V7 (I think - one of the newer types anyway). Seen it two evenings this week riding the Braintree to Witham road a little before 19:00 whilst I’m heading he other way on an SP370 in my Evel Knieval outfit. Anybody here?

@Tony-C help me out. What were t’others and where?
Sorry Kev … I can’t be too certain, but didn’t we see one or two twice…? We had just left Bakewell, and had stopped in Monyash for a brew … The rather tasty round barrelled café racer went past as we were sat outside … I remember his goggles …!! Surely you remember, t’was the place where you referred to my bike as … a “ladies bike” …!!! I have a long memory you know …!! Regards, Tony …
Cali I think, heading in to Long Preston around 1050 today. (Sunday).
Program on the BBC last night about cancer and trials with re-programed white blood cells so that they recognised the cancer cells, one of the patients had a V7 Cafe. Very sad that he passed away but the positive side was that the trials have gone on to help others. Was a very interesting trial and gives hope for the future.

Interesting! A chap who has recently finished building one was at the stand at Mallory 1000 Bikes. Very enthusiastic.

Yesterday - at F2 MC, a big old California 1100, 1995? Fuel injection anyway. Having its sidecar put back on after owner lost control trying to avoid a cat and hit a parked car. The attachments to the bike snapped right off. The owner has only a left arm and no use in his right leg, so all controls are on the left. Twistgrip on the left; two levers, front brake and clutch, and a foot pedal that does the linked brakes plus has a cable to the sidecar brake. (Another cable goes around to the bike’s rear M/C.) Dave at F2 didn’t really want to take it on, and this is after two other firms / mechanics refused, but decided he would “as a challenge”. The bike is a bit scruffy too, especially the wiring, or what I saw of it, so not a simple project. Thr sidecar needs a bit of body repairs.
This afternoon, I spotted a T3 parked on the Thames Path between Wandsworth and Battersea Bridges. Does it belong to anyone in the group?

Modern V7 made BBC Points West news when it won ‘bike of the night’ at Weston Supermare bike night.
Black Griso 1100 outside the White Post pub in Midsomer Norton last night, later also seen riding away north up the Fosse towards Radstock.
Also red Breva 750 parked outside one of the terraced houses on the Butts in Frome (round the corner from where I used to live)
White Cali with a **03GUZ registration parked accross the road from my daughters house in Rhydyfelin, Aberystwyth last week. Didn’t get the chance to go over and make a nuisance of myself.
I was riding up the A24 from the south coast on Sunday lunchtime, and spotted what looked like a chrome-tanked V7 Cafe Racer heading south.
He was in traffic so may not have noticed my Red V7 II Special heading the other way.
Was it anyone on here?
