Quite a collection of rideable old classics! I had a 350 Yamaha like that one, and have a Suzuki T500 now, which I'm figuring out how to set the timing on before a ride this afternoon. ...

Is that Quonset hut a war relic?

I don't take health advice from people who think the world is overpopulated.

Known as Blister hangers( apparently 5 still exist)and the airfield operated, amongst other types, Spitfires and Hurricanes, 1940-45 as a satellite airfield.

I've always known them as Nissen huts, if it's the same thing. Lovely pics!

I think that Nissan huts accommodate people etc, and are much narrower.

Had a look at Wiki, there is a difference in size. Didn't realise the scale from the pics.

The Red Hunter is the same as my Dads he had in the 1930s for his trial riding.
I would have the Suzuki 500 twin.
