Just wondering how many HJH bikes are still in use some 54 years after the Welsh company closed.

Hi B40RT

Many thanks and, yes, I have seen them. Before his death I used to correspond with Hedley John Vickery (the HJ in HJH) A real gentleman in every way. I heard of one trials HJH still in use in Wales some years ago and was wondering if any others were still 'working'. The lads I have spoken to over here in Northern Ireland all had a good word about the machines. Tommy Robb rode one to his first road race victory.
