Flying Ferrets Crossword 01 - Winter 2007 

 

This is the first crossword compiled especially for the Flying Ferrets.  It is cryptic, and themed on motorcycle makes and models, with the exception of one word, which is loosely bike-related.  The whole history of biking, throughout the world, has been called upon, so you may be advised to get yourself a motorcycling encyclopaedia!  Unless you're a complete biking buff, of course.  Although cryptic, the clues do not rely upon a 'Times' level of general knowledge J 

 

If you'd like a printable version, then just right click here and choose 'Save target as...', then open it separately as a PDF document and print it as usual.
