BRIAN'S MOTORCYCLE LINKS
- I've owned about 40 motorcycles if we count all the tiddlers in various states of assembly when I was a youth. I was off the road for more than fifteen years, until the summer of '95 when my old riding buddy Paul Von Kulmiz and I got back in the wind. Strange ... it ALL came back and felt just as good as I remembered! I still have my 1959 panhead Harley and my '67 Velocette Venom but have added the BMW R80RT I travellled on last summer as well as a '78 Honda Super-Sport I bought cheaply - always wanted to try one of those new-fangled Japanese machines! These are links to marques and themes I find interesting ... exotic stuff, old British thumpers, old Harleys etc. The Hog in the background is my 1959 Panhead. Enjoy!
Some of my photographs Pictures of my Velocette and BMW ... more to come.

Seattle Norton Page Old Nortons never die, they just gradually vibrate parts off until there is nothing left. But there wasn't anything racier in 1969 and I remember those rubber burning contests with 427 Corvettes at the Mr. Donut at Billing's Bridge shopping centre in Ottawa.
National Corvette Museum and Harley Davidson Kind of appropriate that they would team up for a "Heritage Festival" in '96 - maybe they'll do it again?
