Was there a giant bike graveyard there in the '60s? (Have a little story...)

Never heard of him. Unless he owned a bike shop within 100 miles of
Bedford or was prominent in the bike trade on the supply side, if he's
over 55 to 60 years old chances are I wouldn't have, because he'd be
into Brit stuff and I don't have any desire to know anything about it.
