My maternal grandfather (on the left) and one of his brothers rode Harley-Davidsons.
Many years ago I had a friend that was into flat track racing with side cars. I helped him set up a side car to his Ariel Square Four with steering components from a car so it could lean over and go faster than competition in the turnsI've posted photos of my other Ariels on here before so now it is the turn of my 1950 NG. This is a single cylinder, 350 cc machine. It certainly won't go up a long, steep hill in fourth gear but puttering around the backroads on it is a lot of fun. Speeds of 50 - 55 mph are comfortable but much more than that makes it feel like the motor is forcing a bit too much for a 72 year old machine. In the background of the photo is my relatively new, 50 year old International tractor.View attachment 751390
That road looks sweet.Went on little tour in Corsica.
Roads there are fantastic. Navi says 44 km = 1h 13 min +/- so it was. King of second gear
As we were 2 up, chicken strips still exist
