[Leica] Nathan's PAD 12/6/2020: first time in 3 months

[imra at iol.ie (Douglas Barry)]

Good to see normal life returning in those images, Nathan. Our 
restaurants are still just doing take away, but we are allowed to swim 
which I was doing, but then the weather changed and it's winter here 
again. I must have missed an earlier post of yours and just saw the '58 
BMW R60 or maybe it's an R50. Those things were designed to pull a 
sidecar so shifting a belly like that shouldn't be a problem :-) The 
only problem those 1950s bikes is the brakes were crap, but it certainly 
developed good anticipation!
