Another year done (not that any year in the timeline is ever complete; more stories and pics are being dropped in all the time) another year started. I’m busy uploading material from 1931, so far including a gallery of pillion seats which, under the latest Road Traffic Act, had to be properly made and fitted. You’ll also find roadtests of the 490cc ohv Norton and the third-generation Ivory Calthorpe. Then there’s a report on a snowbound Bemrose trial, an autocycle with Sachs appeal, Burman’s latest four-speed box and an RAC patrolman who stopped a runaway horse-drawn milk float on his motorbike. And I’ve barely started. There are also more pics to browse through in the second melange picture gallery.
