Title

Old Motorcycles, Thematic Issue

Description

For those who do not ride one, motorcycles always appear suicidal, but enthusiasts of this mode of transport find them exhilarating as it gives them a sense of freedom and independence to go where other modes of transport fail to take them. With heatable leather seats and cruise control, a rider can enjoy the landscape as it unfolds before his eyes. Motorcyclists are fascinated by the technology, performance and innovations on their machines and they take great pride in keeping them in immaculate condition.

T.E. Lawrence, better known as Lawrence of Arabia was a great enthusiast. His first motorcycle was a Triumph with a sidecar. Later he bought several “Brough Superior” models including the BSAWM20-1940 which is one of the most renowned models of its time and was used by the British forces during World War ΙΙ. It forms part of world history.
