G'day from the U.K.

G'day everyone, I am an Aussie doing the unusual thing of living in the U.K. I have recently been thinking about taking up biking again after a 20 year break. I have my eye an an old Humber that I may restore for road racing, not sure what year it is maybe someone on here can help. Have a great ride. cheers from Oldboyracer.

Welcome to Bike Forums.
The folks in the Classic & Vintage forum should be able to help. They like pics.

Hello Old Boy, (sounds veddy British don't you think) welcome to BF. If you have posted the Humber in the C&V Forum you are on the way here. I like the horn and torch on the forks, nice touch and original looking. Best wishes on the restoration of that classic.

That is a very unusual bike you have, it should be a great project to undertake.
