Many thanks for that normgow.
Can't help musing that some readers objected to the "and mopeds" bit. And that cycling then maybe lost a few potential fans to the Vespa.
(Used to have a couple of vespas by the way - i do dimly remember a scathing response to an old acquaintance who dared to call it a moped .. )
And thanks to you Blue Hills, I have met people who did stop their subscriptions when "Mopeds was added to the title. Mopeds were dropped in the early sixties when Alan Gayfer took over as editor. The part I liked about the mopeds were the exploded illustrations of clutches, gearboxes, engines etc. of NSU Quicklys, Motobecanes, Garellis and all those other long lost names of another era.
Oh dear, this sounds like nostalgia gone mad so must stop now. Does CW include E-bikes nowadays? Will the title be changed once again?
