Bevel Drives and Gunga Dins

North of Ajax here we are
to see at long last Mister Bar
and Hedy who in great detail
handled matters via mail
a cordial thanks for open house
and food & drink from all and Klaus

Vincents Nortons bevelshafts
Harleys Indians and other crafts
Gunga dins and Egli frame
no two objects are the same
boxers twins and V formations
designed and built in many nations
for racing war or easy ride
for trip to work or sand dunes wide

One hundred years of 2 wheeled motion
is Bar’s passion – a classic potion
dukes and beemers fast and slow
are the backdrop to the Supershow!
