Petrol – Food – Beer
This wonderful short film tells the tale of three British men who decided, in the early ’90s, to climb onto their £500 motorcycles and ride them around the world. With no preparation, forethought, research or very much money. And they did it.
1966 Chevrolet Batmobile and 1966 Yamaha Batcycle
It’s not everyday you get to buy 2/3rds of the Batcave in one fell swoop. These two immaculate Batmobiles are heading to the auction block on the 1st of December this year with an estimated cost of $125,000 – $175,000 USD, which is less than a new Ferrari 458 Italia and an order of magnitude cooler.
Daytona Beach Racing
This photograph beautifully captures the sense of speed of these two motorcycle racers, they appear to be racing the same model of motorcycle although I can’t for the life of me figure out what it is.
KR GT-1 Prototype by The Arch Motorcycle Company
The KR GT-1 Prototype is the brainchild of Keanu Reeves and Gard Hollinger, they began collaborating on a custom bike for Keanu back in 2007 and over time it evolved from a one-off design to a whole new motorcycle company now called – The Arch Motorcycle Company.
Triumph Kip
I’ve never personally had a sleep on a motorcycle, though this chap does make it look rather comfortable.
Norton Commando 961 Cafe Racer
I was happy to learn last week that Norton Motorcycles have begun customer deliveries of the new Norton Commando 961 model. There had been some concern that the bikes weren’t ever going to ship due to financial issues but it now appears that, in true British style, they’ve hunkered down through the tough times and made it through. With a cup of tea in one hand and a biscuit in the other.
Hazel and the Wall of Death
Meet Hazel. This photograph of her from 1927 shows her smiling broadly before a show at an American fairground. We don’t know much more about Hazel but she does look like the kind of girl it’d be fun to have a drink with.
Summertime
I’ve had this picture sitting around for a while, it isn’t perfectly framed but I like the off the cuff feel of it and the fact that it seems to capture the latter part of a summers day.
Trident Cafe Racer by Super Rat
We’ve featured the gloriously heretical work of Super Rat Motorcycles in the past and so it was with great interest that I learned they’d built a new motorcycle, doubly so when I was told it was a Triumph Trident cafe racer.
Norton F1
The Norton F1 was a Wankel rotary powered road bike built by Norton Motorcycles between 1989 and 1991. It had an engine capacity of 588cc, race spec suspension, an aluminium alloy frame, a hydraulically operated clutch, 5 speed transmission and front/rear disc brakes.
Hill Climb King
Okay so without a doubt, this is the single greatest hill climbing photograph I’ve ever seen.
