Thursby\'s wheel repairs + a Pantah racing link

Just got back from Thursby's after asking advise on wheel repairs....

Anyone who says a wheel does not need repairing, cant be bad in my book.

(Ian - he is now on the main road into Stockton from Norton, in the last building opposite the church).

What a treasure trove - great to find. Roy is heavily involved in PC Hard/Software etc but still obviously loves his Ducati's

He has a nice FII sat next to his office and is planning to obtain as many of the 16 Pantah's he built as race bikes, many moons ago.

He showed me a 'works' cylinder head that he modified himself and it is impressive stuff.

Here is a link to a German website for Pantahs that he's been helping with some English translations:

http://www.ducati-tt.de/index_en.htm

Some good racing pics in there as well.

Good to know that some 'little guys' are still out there doing amazing things.
