Lakeland motor museum
« on: September 13, 2014, 11:24:18 AM »
Having just got back from the Lake district I can recommend the Lakeland motor museum. I have visited the collection that was once at Holker Hall many times before but now that collection is housed along with many other exhibits at the new custom built museum it is even better. Here are a few photo's. As you can see Peels get a mention and the matter of propeller powered vehicles is represented. The Scootacar, Schmit and Trabant are still there. the IC too. Note Shelley's arm is just visible in last picture sporting her new Ducatti racing leathers, hardly compatible with the machine she looked like she was just about to jump onto! :D
Well worth a visit.

Yeh, great isn't it!  I wonder how someone would get one trying to register that for road use now?
