    You're definately not on your own at all!!

    My dad got me into the whole cafe racer scene as he was into it as a kid. There was a brilliant documentary recently about the history foundations and the ace cafe not so long ago on BBC4 (I think was).

    I'm on my phone at the moment but when I'm back at my desk I'll see if it's still about on the web.

    I'm a big fan of Cafe bikes, but know next to nothing about them. I just know they are fucking cool and the only reason I'd get a bike licence.
