Laverda Bike Show
« on: November 12, 2017, 11:08:17 PM »
I attended the Brisbane Laverda Concors today.  There were a couple of very nice Hondas on display:





I also ran into BenT who hopes to get along to more OZSTOC gatherings with Mrs T on their sweet ST1100.  I capped the day giving another ST Owner our card. 

Altogether a pleasant day among nice people and some amazing bikes.


For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Biggles I went to the Laverda Concors bike show in parkland under the Story Bridge about 40 years ago
I rode down from Toowoomba with a group of mates and had a great day
I was probably on my Honda CB750F1

Oooo that CBX looks totally original. I remember admiring one almost exactly like it as a Uni student in the early 80’s.
A man rides on his STeed, says “Why am I short of attention? Got a short little span of attention”.

You can call me Steve, with apologies to Paul Simon.
