    Guest post from Dee Hardwick Cheeky Bid... That’s usually the start of the conversation when I'm dragging my other-half to pick up some random bike/frame/engine from some random bloke in a random part of the country. It's currrently vintage BSA bits. I love bikes, always have done since I was kid growing up on a farm in Lincolnshire. I used to leave AutoTrader (remember it? 45p from corner shop) open with rings around field bikes that my parents chose to ignore. They hated bi
