News items arrive via many different ways, email is by far the biggest provider, then there’s the phone and of course traditiona­l letter post still works, but just occasional­ly things are handed over personally. Graeme Hogg did just such a thing at the Pre-65 Scottish a few weeks ago. Graeme is on the hunt for a bike he built in 1978 while working in the atomic energy industry. The Cumbrian lad had it in his head to build a motocross bike as a one-off, just to see if he could, and what a great job he did of it. The resultant machine – using a Greeves QUB engine and a cantilever frame of his own design – was featured in the weekly press of the day and Graeme wonders if it’s still out there, maybe tucked away in a shed somewhere? If you know of it, or can shed light on what happened to it after Graeme moved on, then please let us know and we’ll pass the informatio­n on to him.
