FREE Motor Cycle Monthly newspaper straight into the hands of serious motorcyclists

The National Motorcycle Museum took along the new Norton rotary racer they intend to throw into the heat of competition before the season is over, Piero Laverda travelled from Italy with the factory’s V6 endurance racer, Sammy Miller wheeled out the AJS Porcupine on which Les Graham won the first 500cc World Championship in 1949 - and thousands of fans arrived at Mallory Park with their enthusiasm crackling. The VMCC’s Festival of 1000 Bikes is back on track as one of the country’s top classic events. Graham Ward was there to snap away for Motor Cycle Monthly. More of Graham’s pictures appear with a meeting report in the August issue of the paper.
