Motorcycles
Brough Superior SS-80
The Brough Superior SS-80 was first released in 1922, the 982cc JAP v-twin was easily capable of pushing the motorcycle to speeds in excess of 80mph (hence the name SS-80)…
Cafe Racer #59
This is another one of those fantastic old photographs featuring an old motorcycle which I know nothing about, rather than venturing a guess as I usually do I’m just going to throw it right to the comments and ask for your best guesses, with extra points for people who can tell me who the rider is.
Evel Knievel – Feature Film
This 1971 feature film tells the story of infamous motorcycle daredevil, Evel Knievel. It’s equal parts comedy and biography with plenty of stunts thrown in for good measure, it’s 1:28:00 long and it’s well worth watching if you’re the kind of person who used to jump bicycles over rickety wooden ramps as a child.

Anke-Eve Goldmann
Anke-Eve Goldmann was a journalist for a number of international motorcycling magazines including Cycle World, Das Motorrad in Germany, Moto Revue in France…
Moto Guzzi by Staghead Moto
Nick Huber is a talented chap, we’ve featured his work on Silodrome before with a story on his beautiful Ducati 900 GTS a few months ago and so it was with great interest that I opened an email from Nick last week containing pictures of his newest creation, a Moto Guzzi in the spirit of the early ’70s Moto Guzzi V7 Sport.
Retro Racer Tee
This fantastic retro tee from Ahbe Racer is exactly the sort of thing I’d wear whilst kicking around the garage on a Sunday afternoon, each shirt is made from 100% Combed Cotton…
