Enforcer57 Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 All those are priceless. The Brits on the minibike-mopeds are fascinating. Never knew of htat. The Yanks are fashionable wiht thier 1928 thompsons with muzzle brakes. And I never knew any side cars had two wheel drive. What a neat idea. The quasi 109 is great idea, but I wonder how many people actually realize what that's supposed to be. The use of motorcycles and four wheelers is huge these days, especially in Ahfghanistan, and no, I don't feel like looking up the spelling. They should name their countries names that are easy to spell dammit. Quote
Klinger Posted August 25, 2008 Author Posted August 25, 2008 Some more info on the Brit Para-Moped. The name Welbike comes from the custom that all the clandestine equipment devised at Station IX in Welwyn had names starting with Wel, e.g, Welrod (pistol), Welman. Quote
GreyKnight Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 Those pictures of the Paras are hilarious. You could probably hear them coming from 5 miles away. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee................ Quote

Cold_Gambler Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 There's a picture of two Afrika Korps guys on a bike + sidecar, covered in dust, that is pretty cool... have to find it. It's not this one (but same 2 soldiers, but a full-on view, not from their 2 o'cl)... Quote
