WD242033@70 Nigel Hole-Trai 
 Nigel Hole 
Nigel is TAG s Publisher at Mortons Media and apart from bringing us great bike and scooter titles to read every month, he s also a committed funky moped owner - well technically his Honda 90 isn t a moped, but we ll let him off Here s what he had to say:
 What the hell do you want that for? is usually the question I m asked when people see my Honda CT90. The constant ribbing at work about my hobby becomes tiresome, but you know what, they don t know what they re missing. 
My obsession - sorry I meant hobby - centres on two things; uniqueness and economy. I fell in love with this American import, also known as the Trail 90, a few years back having seen one of these orange funkmeisters at a show. I loved the knobbly tyres, eight gears, altitude adjuster, spare fuel tank, stubby mudguard, the colour and it fitted in nicely with my 70s renaissance that seems to dog the student world every five-or-so years. This bike had it all for me. 
The economy side is twofold; firstly I can run this bike at around 120mpg and enjoy the world passing by at around 50mph, just sitting back and relaxing. The other bit is the price. You can buy this classic bike with 1200 miles on the clock for about 800 (Stateside you d pay twice that!) what other mint classic bike would you get for that with the coolness my bike has got. Stretch T-shirts are back!
