From one extreme to another

Watched the Moto GP race today. As Moto GP races go, this one was a bit tame. No one fell off, there were only a few slight wobbles and one little bump. But if you’re like me and love, LOVE beautiful, sculptural things, you’d love to watch those super bikes move. Like beautiful, brightly coloured gyroscopes coming so close to touching the ground around each corner. After the race I wanted more beautiful sculptural things and so decided to take my Austin Seven mini and Project 17 out of the garage for a photo.This week I want to get my mini thru its MOT so I can drive it all summer.Project 17, sleek, turbo, 158m/hr?...even though it’s the most beautiful one of a kind bike in the world, it’s just too fast and scary for me to even try riding. Those kinds of thrills I’ll leave up to R.But aren’t they the most beautiful things together?
