The Sinclair Research C5 is a battery electric vehicle invented by Sir Clive Sinclair and launched by Sinclair Research in the United Kingdom on 10 January 1985. The vehicle is a battery-assisted tricycle steered by a handlebar beneath the driver's knees. Powered operation is possible making it unnecessary for the driver to pedal. Its top speed of 15 miles per hour (24 km/h), is the fastest allowed in the UK without a driving licence.
This one is on display in the Coventry Transport Museum.
I'm pleasantly surprised to see that this piece of Installation Art below the dunes at Sinclair Bay is still here, and obviously cared for. The rubber gloves are one of the most common bits of flotsam and jetsam found on beaches here, washed off fishing boats.
Sinclair Bay, Caithness, Scotland.
When I first moved here, this Sinclair was a functional station--it was always priced a bit higher than the QTs of the area which probably contributed to its demise. It is ironically across Southwest Boulevard from the Sinclair refinery.
I think someone has reopened it (again!)

Free Air is a collection of autobiographical stories from The Saturday Evening Post. The cover illustrated the tendency to illustrated cloth before the 1920's. Lewis was a relative unknown when this title was issued. Compare it to Ann Vickers.
Castle Sinclair Girnigoe, Noss Head Caithness, Scotland, Photographed on 13 July 2008, during renovation. The castle was held by Clan Sinclair since the late 14th century. The Sinclairs are well embedded in Scottish history throughout the centuries.
I was surprised to see that Leni's former husband, John Sinclair, was there too. He lives in New Orleans now. Long trip for him. He was selling his book "Guitar Army: Street Writings/Prison Writings." John was a light in my youthful constellation of countercultural stars. Partly because he lived down the highway in Detroit, then Ann Arbor, during my time growing up as a sometime hippie in East Lansing, Michigan, but more particularly because of an unusual bond I felt for him. A bond formed by the fact that my stepfather was the director of the state corrections department during the time John was in prison. My stepfather told me once that he had a role in John's early release. I asked John about that today, and he thought I must be mistaken; that my stepfather might have signed some paper as a mere formality, but that he surely didn't have any interest in springing John early. I'm not sure who's right.
Haven't seen a Sinclair station with the quaint dinosaur logo for a lot of years around the east but they're still going strong out west I guess.
