It all started with an MZ ES 175/1. My mate Mark was told about it, couldn't afford it so bullied me into buying it. That was probably 20 years ago. We ended up with collections of communist block bikes. We always joked about opening a museum. Then in November 2010 Mark died suddenly from heart failure at the age of 44. Ive been helping his friends clear his collection of bikes and parts,and realised Ive got to get moving and start getting my bikes sorted registered and on the road.

Mark Dicker, Chairman of the Yorkshire Regional Soviet
Mark came late to computers, luddite that he was he couldn't see the point of them. Then he was introduced to the wonders of eBay.de and was hooked. He had a blog, describing his bikes and his love of riding and discovering the wonders of the UK. After Mark's death, Gresh took on the unenviable task of sorting and disposing of Mark's collection with the help of other friends, described in the More weird old bikes blog. So my collection has now grown by one Troll, and one and a half Berlins, and its with these I'm going to start
