This are real man's motorcycles, cafe racers never gets old

[@kurtvonderahe2128]

USA Here! Loved my 1964 Norton Atlas ! Those curvy fenders, custom paint by Bill Rail and dropped bars! That was a few years in the early 70s ! At 74 years old I ride a canondale bicycle!

[@paulhoward5439]

The film was shot on the A20 between Wrotham and Brands Hatch. This part of the A20 was for many years used by bikers for road racing as a result the hill on the other side of Brands Hatch heading towards London was called Death Hill and was only renamed by the local council around 20 years ago.

[@Marty-hu7rw]

Brilliant clear historical footage of bikes and road scenes from the late 50s

[@chuckthebull]

British and American bikers back then look so much cooler than American and British bikers do now. now they all ride what look like sports shoes..

[@ludo9234]

Count me out i ride a 1961 AJS all year round. And i still use a pudding basin helmet and goggles.

But now you are millionair, I reckon.

[@allenkennedy6748]

Great to see these guys getting the breeze on their knees. In the States, many of us wanted either a Triumph, Norton, or BSA. No Vincent’s or really any other classic Brit bikes in the middle of the country, before the Japanese invasion. Still love them as much as Harley’s and other American brands, if not more. Someday the TT trip will happen.

[@alexmarshall4331]

Tourist Trophy...make sure you get it done before you cannot...it is awesome geez👉🇬🇧👈

just rode 3,461 km travelling and camping out on my 1967 Triumph Daytona...relatable.

[@wordsmith52]

This film cannot be any older than 1959, because a Mini is shown going by near the beginning.

[@PeteBoyd478]

1:37 Ah yes, 3-lane roads. Glad to see the back of them!

[@jibjab351]

Very nice bit of film, better with sound though

[@j.chiari4222]

@Jack Warner indeed. Just that many many Pathé films are narrated and it's slightly odd to find one that isn't

[@caribman10]

Those of us that came up in or near that era marvel at the fact that what was done could be done with the tires as hard and narrow as they were and of such poor compound and grip, or with what we knew as "brakes" which were substandard when when you upgraded them. The only period British sport bike that had a decent front brake was the late-period BSA Gold Star. Properly set up, it was moderately good. The rest, until the late 60s, were abominable.

[@henrysonnemann2597]

I was not even born then but Rock'n'roll,brittish bikes and booze were my live up till now.

[@davegoldspink5354]

Always still amazes me what my dad and sisters were riding in England and what my Mum was riding here in Australia before they got married compared to the monsters like the Kawasaki Z1 and Z1300 I was riding in the late 70s and early 80s.

I’m amazed nobody’s got a channel who can mimic the voice of the pathe news reporters and gone around the cities. And I thought of it first. But I can’t imitate a classic 50s private school voice. 🇬🇧🎤
