I've never been proud, Bill.
I had been out of work for six months, and got a job in Birmingham, about an eighteen mile journey. The CZ was the cheapest way for me to get transport. Never had a problem with it, in the short time that I rode it, but the kudos factor was zero. :lol:

I'll get my coat.
A Honda 50 was state of the art, when I had my Cazenave moped, Andy. :laugh:
I progressed to a Tiger Cub. Also had a CZ 125 for six months, until I could get back on four wheels.

Nowt wrong with CZ! Yes they were the 1970s Skoda of the bike world I guess,
CZ used to do really quite well in on the motorcycle scrambling circuit as I recall. (At the time I was running a Bultaco Sherpa 250).
And I also remember being at Shelsley Walsh hillclimb watching Hannu Mikkola's attempt at the hill speed record in an Audi Quattro.
He didn't get it; and the record was held by a Skoda!
BTW the Moto Guzzi I lusted after was the Le Mans
IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS

I had a Bultaco Sherpa T250 too! Before that, a BSA Bantam 175 based trials bike, alternator was buggered so it ran off a 6V everready battery
