Australian Ivan Casson Has an Impressive Collection of Historic Motorcycles

Casson lives in Australia and has a very nice, reinforced and secure garage in the back of his house there. Inside the garage is an enviable collection of some very fine motorcycles. A jaw-droppingly well-maintained 1933 Matchless Silver Hawk, and bikes from BSA, Brough Superior, Vincent, Ariel, Sunbeam and four Triumphs, a Speed Twin, Tiger, 3T and Thunderbird - all are in his garage, but that is not all. From the modern age, a mint-condition 1982 Honda CB1100R, a Benelli Sei six-cylinder and a BMW R100RT. Check out the story after the link.

Go Back in Time - The 2009 Belgian TT

The Gedinne circuit is 3.43 miles of regular, public - read: tiny and bumpy - roads in the Ardennes hills in Belgium closed off for racing of historic motorcycles which may have raced there when they were new and ultra-fast. It's a dangerous 'real roads' racing game there, but the history, the aura, the bikes, the people - all of it adds up to something like a trip back in time; back to a golden age, but with more modern safety gear on motorcycles worth much more now than they were then.
