What an amazing variety of makes and models on display. Such an eclectic collection. I especially like the beautiful Ivory Calthorpe from the 1930’s. And the Scott Squirrels.

Sammy Miller is a literal living legend from the Golden Era of motorcycles. Saw him about 40 years ago at the Talmag Trials event, well into his retirement. As far as I know he still occasionally rides his competition-winning bikes. He must be close to 100 years old. And yes, I am using literal in the literal sense.

I visited this museum in 1994 with my wife my brother and his wife, I think it was called the National motorcycle museum then!!?? I took a video until my battery died. An incredible collection. It appears to have expanded quite a bit.

If this museum isn't too far from my house, I'd like to visit it on my motorcycle.
