The guy on my right at the end left in the picture is a friend that I met at 16 years old when we worked together and he bought a red Vellocette Venom which was looked and went fantastic and made me want to buy one which I did and that was my start of love for Velo's. One day he didn't turn up for work and we were told he had been hit from behind by a car while riding home from work. That was the end of his solo riding due to serious life changing injuries but it didn't stop him from getting back on his Velo even though he had to have a sidecar.


We also tried a bit of racing together on this Norton framed Triumph outfit.


He moved to Canada many years ago but it's great we are still in touch.
Happy Daze.
