Roll, roll, roller

Ja Skoda!

This was the opportunity to take the Leader on a good long run to help cook off the oil residue in the pipes. The bike ran pretty well, but I feel I will need to re-lube the gearbox as its a bit 'gluggy.'

1924 Hispano Suiza with Australian body by Martin & King

"Martin and King were among the leading Australian coachbuilders, built for all the prestige brands, and were Rolls-Royce's own preference for Australian bodies. Martin and King bodies were more robust and had better dustproofing that British bodies, quite important for Australian road conditions. Over the years they built for Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Delage, Hispano-Suiza, Bugatti, Jaguar and many others." https://www.coachbuild.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1069
