    Glad to see this thread is still active, will try to make a few contributions.

    This guy posing on his VL is clearly impressing the girls. His nickname was "Kilowatt" as he was an electrical engineer.



    Another picture with Mr. Kilowatt

    And then there is the idea that we are here on earth to get a certain amount of things done before we die.
    This is a great theory.
    If it is true, I am so far behind that I will never die...

    Workshop interior, is this an early Excelsior that is getting an overhaul?

    That's either a tiny motorcycle or a really big man.

    Sverre, I am equally intrigued by what appears to be a grave headstone in the near background of the photo. Or perhaps a road marker?? Any idea what that is? And what about the woodpile, stacked so nicely--- appears to be green lumber 'air-stacked' to dry out. The photo is fascinating to me, not only the antique motorcycle, but that it's also from Norway... is that right? Any thoughts?
