    LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

    And from abroad…

    Congratulations upon reaching 75 issues. I first found O.B.A in a newsagents in Manly, September 2008, Issue 9. I was on holiday with my wife Marion (Mazza) visiting rellies and friends, as way, way back Marion was a ten pound Pom. Fortunately or unfortunately(?) she visited the homeland and met and married me. Anyway reading O.B.A. I found it had just the right amount of info. Things like Tracks in Time – places I had never heard of but recognised riders’ names, the ones who came to Europe to race. On returning home I managed to find a company who could get the magazine and also back copies of ones I had missed (1-8). I look forward each month to the next issue. It always amazes me the topics and road tests written so differently to the U.K. mags. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to many more issues. Please don’t change the format. (The first page I read is the back page Edgar Jessop).

    Many thanks to you and your team.

    I have fallen in love twice. Once was with a woman, the other was with an object. Well, others said she was inanimate, but they were not on intimate terms like me. I knew better. She combined the best attributes of supermodel and muscular female athl
