Took the NF down to Dichindad last week to visit an old school |
|
friend who rebuild this 17th (?) century coaching inn from a |

He pulled out this photo, donated by someone who used to live |
|
there before it fell into ruin, of a gentleman on an early 20th |
|

It's nice to have a bit of motorcycling continuity at such a |
|
historic place. |
