Here are some more photos that I took today of this interesting vehicle. Not a computer in sight and no plastic, either. Just real American steel and lots of it.

That is a missed opportunity for a Monty Python skit |

Zitat von duccrazydave im Beitrag #82 Yeah, but........ David Brown and Leyland just don't have the "ring" of Farmall H. Of course, the green people just went by A or B then jumped to numbers

Here are some photos that I took at Alice's Restaurant today. It was a very busy Father's Day crowd this morning. The line formed up 20 minutes before they opened and stayed that way until I left at 10 am.

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #85Zitat von Richard230 im Beitrag #84 Yes it is. That is her 1981 BMW R65LS, with about 100K miles. She was buying me breakfast at Alice's. You can see her in the background in the photo of her husband trying out riding a friend's Hog. The white 1986 VFR700FII belongs to her husband. That bike currently has over 116,000 on the clock.

Zitat von jimbob im Beitrag #88 I agree. Recently Alice's Restaurant has been overwhelmed with customers. Perhaps because wearing masks is no longer required, or maybe it is just the only game in town in that area of the woods. In order to keep my wait to a minimum, my friends and I typically arrive 15 minutes before they open on a Sunday morning. It used to be that we would have the place pretty much to ourselves for the first hour, but no longer. The two brothers who own the place have a gold mine. BTW, I have been going to the restaurant almost every Sunday for breakfast since 1973, with a short break eating at The Merry Prankster in La Honda before it closed for good a few years ago, and these owners are far and away the best managers of the place since then.
