Welcome to Beware of the Flowers

Enthusiasm and misplaced belief can take you a long way

The B Side sold as many copies as the A Side

It started during the seventies when we were all still at school. The joys of comprehensive education were overtaken(for me at least) when I obtained my shiny new(read old and rusty) Honda SS50.

My first Otway gig was a little time later at Durham. This gig was unusual in that you could only get in with a copy of John’s latest single.

Over the years we have taken part in the full gambit of biking activities, from race meeting’s all over Europe to rallies and shows etc. We had a passion for 24 hour races at one point, although more recently we have taken to the rally scene. The TT has also been a regular part of our activities. While GP’s are fantastic on the telly, there’s nothing to beat real road racing action. We even had a go at racing. Well to be honest we took part in an eight hour moped endurance race. Never been so frightened in my entire life.
