    You were completely correct. A wonderful machine. I can't imagine that's the original saddle.

    What a great story! I should learn to care for my bicycles like this gentleman.

    Very nice bike...that was also when they were built to last using all steel parts, very little or no plastic parts on that bike!

    Awesome. I left a comment on his blog. I've been through Ashford, Kent. I was staying in Bearsted for business at the time (if you looks for Ashford, Kent on Google maps, you can see the two cities are just a short drive apart).

    The whole blog looks kind of interesting.

    You may like to know that John Head (the subject of this posting) died recently. See my blog.

    Avus-Thanks for the notice. That is some sad news. I'm sure he was happy to know that his bike went to someone who receives as much enjoyment from it as he did.

    I just found out that John Head, the original owner (shown in the picture above) of the Rudge, passed away recently.

    RIP, John.
