In the last hours before I set off for another long holiday in France...obv iously Alpe d'Huez will feature...spent in the company of guys such as Nels on Miller of the CR List - he's already over there buying up the bargains - I am idling away my time updating my own little internet photo album of bike pictures, most of them of French machines, except, of course for the s ection on those wonderful Bespoke of Settle ones.....
It's raining over here !!!!! so if it's raining where you are..why not just tune into a little of the history of some of the great..and less well-know n marques from our Gallic friends?
I have just added photos and descriptive stuff about Helyett, Dilecta, JEZO (who's he ? do I hear you say?)..and a little bit more about Wolhauser of Lyon
By the time the rain has baited sufficiently for me to start loading up the car, I might have added several more...but I do want to get the shots of that very early and very unusual Helyett - I think that Benottos was responsible for the decals - before I s tart up the motor.
