Ride across to Coldstream on the Royal Enfield Classic 350's!

 


Friend Bob who lives along the road has now run in his new Royal Enfield Classic 350 with 1000 miles on it now and a couple of weeks ago he popped round to let me see his bike...



The Desert Storm colour looks better in the flesh than online pics, as most of the bikes colour options do...

Today we both took a run across Berwickshire to Coldstream to visit the Army Surplus Shop run by Trevor - Walk This Way, as I had promised him on a previous visit with G that I would bring him some 1942 Hispano cartridge shell cases...

Its a delightful hours ride on country roads to Coldstream and after a car left parked outside the shop we moved our bikes down outside...




The shop is packed and well worth a visit, It also has a downstairs museum which is also packed full of military items...



With a deal done with the Hispano's for a 1943 25 pounder shell I have been looking for one for a while, we headed home after a stop at Kelso...


Home and G was delighted with a new addition to the shell collection and she soon had it polished up...




Wee film of our day out...



More soon...
