Che - you know who!!!!!


His name was Ernesto Gauvara Lynch. Che was the name his comrades gave him.

All bikers have to start somewhere and Che started on a motorised bicycle.









Che and I have so much in common. He was a qualified doctor and I went to a doctor once.
He was a Marxist and I am a bit pink or left of centre.
He spent most of his adult life fighting wars and I am always in trouble.
The list goes on and uncanny isn´t it. ( Come on allow me a bit of self delusion. )
How about the old Norton he travelled all through Central and South America on? He did it before most of the roads were sealed but hey where he went so have I been too.



The little museum had his family photos and documents. His certificate to practice medicine, etc.






I thought Fidel Castro´s signature was worth a photo. He signed the visitors book when he visted in 2006. My signature is in there now to.
