THE FLAT TRACKER.

"What makes a good flat tracker"
Harley Davidson, BSA, Triumph, or some of the most recent marques.
What ever bike you decide upon, it must be well made, light in weight, fast, balanced and harmonious with track and rider. A brief glimpse below of a flat track bike waiting to go for paint. There will be a full photo shoot to follow once the bike is completed. Watch this space for up dates!

Scarlett Rickard


Friend of Magneto Scarlett Rickard found the time to pen down a design that captures the character and foolhardiness of my dog, Scarlett incorporated my 1947 Triumph bobber skillfully into this fantastic graphic design. Thanks again Scarlett. GM



Italian Lightweights

What makes the V.M.C.C West Kent Run so special?
That's simple. It's the large contingent of European and international riders. They come from everywhere; Holland, France, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Denmark, the Czech Republic, Lithuania—and plenty of places that some of us have never heard of. It's a regular United Nations of Motorcycling. Including some magnificent machines from Italy this year.

Bentley Drivers Club at The Headland Hotel

Its always good to see an old car or motorbike being used as it should be .. driven hard , wet & muddy ! So it was quite a surprise on Saturday having just finished shooting a wedding at the Headland Hotel in Newquay, Cornwall to see not one but a car park full of vintage Bentleys! I couldn't resist a quick few snaps of these stunning motor cars & meeting one owner who then told me he'd owned his, complete with gaffer taped wings since he was 17 , was the icing on the cake !
