Glad to see it restored to a high quality finish

Hi Andrew and thank you. Normally I would restore them and sell them, but just can't do it with this one. Take care, Jeff

That was a nice little run out and what a beautiful place very picturesque Spot on Jeff 👍👍👍👍

Thanks Alan, hopefully the Velosolex soon. It's been over a week now since it had its inspection, so hopefully no news is good news. Take care, Jeff

Hi Jeff, brilliant video of shepperton, makes me feel a little homesick! The bike looks incredible & you have done a wonderful restoration job. Love to you & Jenny xx

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Hi Sue and thank you. Since they have resurfaced the road down by the river it makes riding down there more enjoyable. Take care, Jeff and Jenny xx

Brilliant, looks great,runs lovely, and sounds perfect, great work, jeff ,nice tour around, and a look at the pubs,

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Thanks very much Martin, if I didn't do that video I wouldn't have had a video this week. I have just finished a week of seven days of lates. I only have two off now and back for seven again. I think my son has worn his rear brakes down to the metal so will need to do that tomorrow. I will soon be out of this horrible cycle in the roster and can get on restoring again. Take care, Jeff

Hey Jeff......great to see moby running and shepperton looks very picturesque......cheers for video !

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Hi Adam and thank you. I'm still waiting to hear back from the DVLA regarding the registration of the Velosolex. I hope no news is good news. Take care, Jeff

Hi Dave, thanks very much Don't forget to try the Mango at some stage. Take care, Jeff

Nice little run out that, seems to go really well.

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Thanks Keith, it does run well, but sometimes different to start again. I think there might be a bit of dirt in the tank. I will clean it all out when I get chance. Take care, Jeff

Hi Jeff, hope your well, The Mobylette running well sounds good as well and for a 70 year old bike it looks good. Nice video catch you soon Take care

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Hi Shaun, not bad health wise thank you. Just got back from work after another 10 hours day. I didn't have time to do a normal video this week, so just filmed this one on a normal shopping trip down to Shepperton. I'm still waiting on the registration from the DVLA for the Velosolex. No news is good news I suppose. Next week will be a video on my son's rear brakes. Apparently he says it's not stopping properly and I'm only off for two days and then another 7 days again. Take care, Jeff

What a lovely ride out Jeff did you call in any pubs or the Caffè the bike looked nippy it looked a lovely place to visit I bet Richard Burton called in the pub mate ha Phil Ii stoke 😂😂

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Hi Phil and thank you. I wish I had time to visit the pubs, unfortunately time is my enemy. I do have breakfast in the cafe everyday if I am off, only when I have time. I Believe Richard Burton did like a quiet drink occasionally, so he must have visited others in the area. I saw a recent interview with Derren Nesbitt who played the SS Officer in Where Eagles Dare. He said that he was on a day rate and when Burton was on set they couldn't film due to the odd drink he had. It didn't bother him as he just got another day's pay. Take care, Jeff

[@andygirling8964]

Blimey a bit speedy on the Mobylette, you nearly went past The Mango Cafe (10% discount)

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Lol, hi Andy, no I did eventually get it to stop, so enjoyed a free English Breakfast. Take care, Jeff
