Hi Bill:
Yes there are quite a few of us - especially here in Edmonton. I own 5
LBCs and 2 FBBs (Fast Brit Bikes). Another friend is restoring a TR3A and
owns a Norton. Another has a Tiger, an MGB, a TC and a Sprite. He also
owns a Norton and a Triumph. Another chap has an Alpine and a BSA.
Another has a TR3A, a Norton, 5 Triumphs and 2 BSAs. Another fellow has a
Morgan, several Nortons, Triumphs and BSAs as well as several more exotic
makes including a beautiful Vincent.
I belong to the Edmonton Classic Sports Car Club and the Canadian Vintage
Motorcycle Group, Northern Alberta Section. Many other members own a
variety of bikes and cars. They seem to go together.
At our recent British Motor Meet, there were 150 cars and 28 motorcycles.
Many of the owners showed both.
