Looking at the posts on old motor bikes etc.reminded me of a weekend in the 1950’s. My Dad had a friend in the forces who started up a motor bike shop in London after the war. The friend invited us down to his place for a weekend. His name (I think) was Sid Strelitz and he had his shop at 458 Barking Road, Plaistow (stupid how these details stick in your memory for years!). I wondered if anyone remembers the shop (or Sid), or is my memory playing tricks?
