[@philnewcomers9170]

Julie: you know me thanks for the trip round your workshop and store very nice ttfn&ty

[@dgprojects6536]

This is what we need more videos like this, people’s sheds are much more entertaining than anything else. Well done Lana keep them coming.

[@philhawley1219]

Great video, such a varied collection. I'll get in my shed this week to finish my BSA.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Thanks!

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

@@philhawley1219 great stuff!

[@dogpaw775]

honest bikes not all preened beyond show room condition, excellent.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Thanks for your comment, really appreciate it!

[@martinowl]

Absolutely brilliant. What a great selection of machines. Not a trailer queen or not to be ridden show pony in sight. Love the sheds/garages/workshops. I would never be able to find what I wanted, lol. Great to see a lady so knowledgeable & enthusiastic about motorcycles too.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Thanks!

[@SteveBernard42]

Hi Julie and Rick! Hope to see you in highlands again sometime. Best wishes.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Would love to get back up there!

[@deanjohnson7350]

Best vid I've watched in years, wish it was longer, brilliant.

[@alanireland5222]

Awesome collection :)

[@emmamiller-n5j]

How good to see a Dunelt! I've only seen the two at Sammy Millers previously. My Grandad used to race a 500 with a chair on and I used to love listening to his tales about bikes when I was small.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Wowser!

[@martinmckeeman5139]

what a cool shed I'm envious

[@johngreenwood1972]

What a wonderful couple and brilliant collection.

[@danielmcneil3004]

Thanks Lana for this video. I could spend hours exploring the bike collection and workshop. And thanks also to Jule and Rick for sharing. Great stuff. Cheers, Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Cheers!

Spotted Julie’s Sendra Red Series boots she was wearing during the hill climb at 2:50….great choice boots 👍👍👍

[@DukeDyson]

I've been to several Elk Promotions events, they're always brilliant. Nice to see the driving force behind them and their fabulous collection 🙂

Great video my dad had an A10 with a sidecar when we were kids,,we all used to go everywhere in it ,, and his uncle raced an AJS 7R he was great friends with ARTIE BELL ,,, from northern Ireland ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️ enjoyed your video 👍

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Thanks! My new-born daughter came home from the hospital in an A10 Combo - parked round the corner so the nurses didn't see us driving off!

[@RUBBERTANK_3]

This was brilliant and bloody funny.

[@brockett]

Thanks for the interesting video

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Thanks!

[@skymningforelsket1302]

I wonder what was the first production bike in the world to use enclosed valve gear, re-circulating oil, and foot shift? Well, whatever it is, I'd say those features is truly the leap that makes it daily useful. Probably such a bike could be used as a daily rider today.

[@allanmason7544]

great vid thanks

[@grahamlaw6224]

very entertaining video cheers guys ! see ya soon .sid !

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

luv ya too Sid xxx

[@kopynd1]

shes a walking encyclopaedia and very polite, and a really nice accent, kicked that a10 off no problem, alike them silver hawks any ajs or matchless, a miss all these shed visits theres not many of us left now, most have gone to the shed in the sky, if ever I win a fortune maybe invest in a nursing home for British bike only enthusiasts

[@sianhayward9208]

R U Kidding. Oh My Goodness! 〰✨‼✨〰 Where have you been in my life??? 〰 ✨‼✨〰. Oh, That "Classic Bike Raffle"? ~ In the USA we call that Facebook Marketplace. ~. Just picked up a 1995 Honda Nighthawk 750 ~. What a dreamy sweet spot there in the U.K. Just wow!. Thanks so much for this. Wow! ~from New Hampshire. ✨🇺🇸♥🇬🇧✨

[@trailingarm63]

Good film and a great couple but I'm glad my motorcycle experience began in about 1980. Give me electric start, disk brakes & electronic ignition any day. You can add fuel injection to that now too. My dad had a '50s BSA 500 (B33). He loved it - each to their own.

[@paulcooper5610]

Wow, Henry Cole would have a couple of series worth just looking around their sheds. Nice video lets see more of everyday folks bike collections.

[@przygodyhonodyxr6009]

👍 SUPER 💪

[@daveco1270]

That's an impressive collection. And you can tell the bikes get ridden. Julie's a bit of a bad ass.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

I'm not Really scarey - honest!

[@daveco1270]

@@mrselk-VintageBikeBird I believe you. : ) To me "badass" means someone who's cool/tough/can handle their stuff. Like Steve McQueen.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Wow - I'm really honoured!

[@petrstuntbiker885]

Nice motorbikes collection 👌✌️🇨🇿😉

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Thanks!

[@chrisbolton5461]

Some collection.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Thanks

[@hermannhase6243]

I would love to hibernate in those sheds 😂lock me in & don’t let me out for months. I’m sure I could find what I’m missing.

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

I'd happily lock you in there with some wire wool & brasso!

[@LeslieBennett-ik9dz]

That is not a SuperFlash. It is a Golden Flash with a chrome number plate extension. I have one. Only about 700 were made for 1953 for export, with there being 19 swinging arm models. Differences from the Golden Flash include 2 gallon tank, chrome mudguards, rev counter, kinked rear downtime to accommodate the TT carburettor, larger oil tank, smaller tool box, rear set lugs, triple row primary chain. They normally have western style bars.

[@vinnyOdea878]

That matchless/ajs, have I seen that in Hemel Hempstead town?

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

Probably not, unless it's escaped & been sloping off on its own!

[@nicholasjarrold8649]

Hi would you know if Julie and Rick would sell the bsa gold flash 650 my father use to have one in 1960 when I was born and I’ve always thought how nice it’d be to have one he use to take me on it when I was 4 and 5 for a ride sometimes but you never know if you don’t ask bye for now

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

probably not, I'm a bit sentimental, I've owned it since 1990 and covered well over 100,000 miles on it! Shouldn't. be too difficult to find a nice Gold flash for sale!

[@nicholasjarrold8649]

@@mrselk-VintageBikeBird ok thought I’d just ask don’t blame you really hope you enjoy loads more miles on it take care ride safe 👋

[@jofknoll]

a great video well done,a question for julie and rick do they only sell parts at the auto jumbles listed on their web site or do they sell parts elsewhere,im looking for engine parts for a 1923 J.A.P KT v twin,if possible thank you

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

We do have a stall at various 'jumbles inthe UK, but Don't think I've got any JAP v-twin stuff, sorry..

[@gilleslaserbe5755]

Tres agreable, bonne vie...

[@peterrestaino7047]

how do you afford all these rare bikes and all the fees on registration

[@mrselk-VintageBikeBird]

No registration fees in the UK, in fact the historic vehicles are a cheap option here - no road tax, cheap insurance, no MOT!

[@rjbailey43]

one at a time over 40 years of motorcycling.
