I agree most trolley tyres are not as strong as they used to be. How about using the trailer road tyres instead? They are usually 6ply and can be fitted to trolley wheel centres easily by hand / cycle tyre levers / best cutlery etc. The rolling radius is slightly larger than standard trolley tyres b...

You're quite right Ed, its not just old boats that appeal although they are considerably cheaper and need to be gathered up now while we can to make our fortunes later (thats my excuse anyway). What a fabulous collection of rare and obscure vehicles, thank you for sharing them. "Ebay in one han...

Thanks to Sam and all at Hykeham for a great weekend of competitive sailing and socialising. The Race teams managed to get 3 good races in each day despite the unpredictable winds.

......and here's another one (on a smaller scale) Collected from Lowestoft on Wednesday as a hull and mast, scrubbed up, borrowed a few bits and its back on the water winning club races today. Yes its plastic but still a rare classic and plenty of life in it yet. https://www.facebook.com/groups/4226...
