Default Need info please

This is my newest acquisition and I have a few questions. As you can see when you get something new everyone wants to drive it. How can I tell who made this? It is supposedly British but has some Dutch Army markings on it. Is there any old bike dealers in Britain or Holland who may have parts? Thanks to Dirk for the bike and thanks to Stefan for changing the badly bent rim and for buying me 2 new tires. Thanks also to Brian for wrapping the thing for the flight home. Dirk sure got a few strange looks while pushing this old thing from one end of Schipol to the other.
Thanks,
Barry

Default Another test ride

Notice the whitewall tires. These are reflective and if I am not mistaken they are mandatory now in Holland, when installing new tires. If they aren't mandatory it is a good idea anyway. These will stay on the bike and then the old, fat, bald guy will make a better target.
