John Britten was an amazing guy. There is a great documentary piece on him from years ago. He hand built his house from recycled materials.

Had the pleasure of seeing a couple of these bikes in the flesh at a Wings and Wheels event held at the base I was serving at in NZ
Happiness is not a destination. It is a way of life.

Got to see it at Donington a couple of years back and had a good chat with the owner. Very interesting and spent ages drooling over the bike.
