Hi from Somerset

[paul33]

I have been looking at this forum for a while and thought it was time to say hello. My main interest is building and racing sidecars and this has led on to all sorts of metal work. I am always looking to do things i havent done before or do things in a better way. It is brillant to find there are so many other "men in sheds" - some of you seem to be as mad as me!
The English eccentric is alive and well!
Thanks for all the tips I have found so far, Cheers. Paul

"Men in Sheds" - wasn't that an Australian group?

Never mind, Welcome.
I can't get into my shed. When open the door, stuff falls out.

We even make TV programmes about sheds

Welcome to the madhouse! Regards, Stuart.

Hello Paul, Welcome to the forum
Wher 'bouts in Zummerzet are e?

 

[paul33]

Highbridge on the north coast about 25 miles from bristol - On the Somerset Levels we dont have much in the way of hills and are below sea level. I sometimes think that accounts for the madness!

Hi Paul33. Is that road racing or motocross sidecars, or summat else? Oh, and lets see some pics please

 

[paul33]

I have made an album with some Sidecar stuff to give you a clue as to what we do. A picture is worth a thousand words!

What engine are you using in you're outfit Paul

There's some nice looking work on the frame in you're photo album.
