In Wisconsin we saw this old antique bike also known as Springfield Roadster. To watch these riders be able to pull themselves up and ride away was amazing. Their attire most certainly was original for the riding of this antique bike.

The TA21 Drophead Coupe is appreciated by collectors for its blend of British charm, rarity, and driveability.

A lot of the dark green bricks don't exist in the real world but I was having fun with this one! I imagine it is the big Bentley of the hovercar world: loud, raucous and fast; just like its owner.
I love a sunny winter's day and a drive to the sea, and what better car to do it in than a nice old Mercedes Benz 300 SL roadster.

The rocky breakwater beyond the boat ramps was absolutely covered with crested terns! They took flight every now and then creating quite a scene. Some photos of that will follow soon.
