saw three classics going into suburbs of Newquay last Saturday about 17.15 - one with a loud dumpvalve. We were going out towards Bodmin and waved to all, got a wave back from two but the third bloke didn't notice.

Default Re. RB5 with black compomotives:

I saw ya! Nice motor!

I was in the Dark Blue Mica with gold wheels (555 plate) that had a brief drag with you on a bit of dual carriageway near Bodmin.

Excuse for backing off - the 'rev-limiter' sitting next to me (the mrs screaming "Slowthe****downandactyourage!" in my lug-hole).

Am running about 225 bhp. U?
