About Me

I never thought I would do a blog. Never saw the point and I have a job where I write far too many emails than is healthy. In November 2010 I lost a dear friend Mark Dicker. He had a blog that encompassed his love of weird motorcycles, trains and travelling. This blog is a kind of extension to that blog (URL below). http://weirdoldbikes.blogspot.com. Mark had a large number of motorcycles mostly from the Motorradwerke Zschopau (MZ) manufacturer. I, with a number of his friends are breaking up the unique collection to assist his family in closing his estate. This is a record of that collection and the journey of its disposal. Will anyone get anything out of this? For those with a passion for old East European bikes, then yes. They are still exotic in this country though less so due to the efforts of Mark and others that shared with him the almost addictive collecting of these vehicles.

The MZ Trail bike project.

This is another MZ TS 150. It already was a bit of a customised trail bike. Over the last 18 months with the aid of myself and other it has had an engine replacement, wirng loom replacement, a 21 inch front wheel and a few new consumables. It has been running but unfortunately I have not had a go myself. It does look fun. The raised up exhaust came with the bike. Someone may know what it is from.
