Just a thought. There is a pub called the Travellers Rest which the community are trying to save from being turned into corporate offices.

[quotenick="SiI had a knackered Bantam...My first bike was a lovely Bantam 125 Si - £30 fully overhauled ad repainted from a friend in Ilkley I traded it in for a fabulous AJS 500 single which I had to sell later as I was under 25 and the insurance renewal was a no go.Since becoming "the oldest rocker in town" at 66 years old I've got a beautiful yellow Suzuki Bandit 600, have just sold a great Royal Enfield 500 (great while they're OK but oh the cost of parts and repairs) and as a final treat in my motorbiking career last June I bought a Jinlun Texan 125 twin - fair enough a Chinese "gimmicky cruiser" but how I love that machine. On the road £1,599 with all accessories, luggage panniers, tools and the lot - and does nigh on 100 miles a gallon - rocker gearchange and footboards, and finished in lovely burgundy and chrome everywhere.

I think you need to start a new thread if you wanna talk about old bikes!

The Tut & Shive in Yeadon was an interesting pub last time I called in about 10 years ago. Full of charactor and old world charm. If I remember rightly it had an old bog seat on the bar and, alot of other stuff salvaged from skips which made up the pubs unique decor. I don't know if it's the same now but, if it is I'm sure it would make for some interesting photography. I must pay it a visit again with my camera.

Only one teensy problem - its shut down!

Only one teensy problem - its shut down! Is it a recent closure, as it looked to still be open on Google street view? I guess it just goes to show, just how out of date the images really are on street view!
