Re: For those that prefer a cup of Tea with their motorbike instead of Leathers
Absolutely fascinating pictures and log Stu
I remember those front loading aircraft from pictures my Dad took Don't know how old your Dad was when he did this ride, but if he's 87, he would have been a couple of years older than my Dad, but my Dad would have been impressed with this and especially the Brough Great black & white photo's, they've been looked after well too

Re: For those that prefer a cup of Tea with their motorbike instead of Leathers
What a fascinating read.
I'm sure some orgers have taken photos very similar to some of those, and it seems so surreal to be looking at black and whites with cobbled roads! Especially the picture of the long stretch road as far as the eye can see....seems almost familiar from my French mates travels, sure theres a colour version. 160mph by an old bloke of over 70?? Thanks for sharing Stu.....long time no see
