At the summit of Blea Tarn Pass with the lofty Langdale Peaks in the background. A group of the successful riders who reached the top of this notorious Pass from Great Langdale. To the fore of the group is a Sunbeam, presumably the one ridden by T Rutherford who showed how it should be done; while the sidecar is most likely a Sunbeam also -perhaps that of Macdonald, though it seems Rutherford may have actually driven it to reach the summit. Other sidecar outfits (including Captain TD Craig's 6hp AJS, driven on this section by J J Dias) made it up, as did several other machines, with among those mentioned the 2Â½hp Clyno of R Pape, who made one of the best ascents of the day.

Here he is (41) pictured chasing his good friend and hero John 'Mooneyes' Cooper (1) and Steve Machin (19), the man who took advantage of Barry's decision to contest a big

Champions all. Chas Mortimer (Broad Yamaha) leads Malcolm Uphill (Crooks Suzuki), Paul Smart (Yamaha) and Barry Sheene (Yamaha-Bultaco) in a 250cc clash at Mallory Park on 27 March 1970. Sheene's bike was a special put together by his father using a Yamaha TD2 motor in a Bultaco chassis. The Yamaha engine was provided by Cheshire sponsor Gerald Brown who went on to provide 250 and 350 Yamahas for Sheene to race in 1971. Sheene said the support Brown gave in those early years was invaluable and helped him make his mark. (You Tube)

The slip that cost £20,000. That was the bonus on offer to anyone who could win all six 1982 US v UK Match races. Sheene won five but this happened at Mallory - jammed steering at the hairpin. He picked the bike up but Roger Marshall had already nipped ahead and Sheene finished second.

Sheene and Kenny Roberts are two of motorcycling's all-time greats but who was the best of the best? They first raced against each other at Daytona in 1974 and over the next decade they met more than 100 times and on four continents. Although Roberts beat Sheene in most of those encounters Merv Wright, who managed the Suzuki race effort in America and Europe, reckons Sheene was often on inferior machinery.

A few weeks after his Daytona crash, Sheene bought himself this second-hand Rolls-Royce to cheer himself up. The famous personalised Barry Sheene racing plate followed. This picture was taken at the Match Races at Brands in April 1975. American rider Dave Aldana is the back seat passenger and the driver is Merv Wright, who moved from America to Britain to manage the Texaco Heron Team Suzuki squad the following year. If the picture had been taken a few minutes and few miles down the road it would have captured Aldana introducing the drivers of Kent to the American practice of mooning.

WD127477@10 Salsbury model
For those who didn't guess it was a Salsbury Model 85 (standard model - the deluxe model having a faired in front end with a windscreen and a rear pillion seat). The Model 85 had a production run starting in 1946 and ending in 1949 after 700-1000 units were produced. The official public debut of the Model 85 was at a press conference in late 1946 on Fargo Street in Los Angeles (chosen as Fargo Street was the steepest road in Los Angeles, with a 32 degree slope). The idea was to display the Model 85's hill climbing ability - a task it apparently managed with ease.

A LULL BEFORE THE STORM
IT'S a received wisdom that the general public knew nothing about Mods prior to the events of Easter 1964, but like most received wisdoms, it's only partially true. Many people are aware of the 1962 Town article featuring (amongst others) Marc Bolan, but if you look hard enough there is other material around pre-dating the seaside riots.
In December 1963 Motor Cycle magazine ran a light-hearted 'Are you a Mod or a Rocker?' quiz. Readers were asked questions about their attire and habits. The top three levels of scoring (Mod, Mid and Rocker) were all considered "with it", while the lowest scoring category (Old Fogey) was definitely considered to be "without it".
The piece was written by one Mike Evans and it is he who is featured as the example Mod, with a suitably scruffy Rocker alongside for comparison. Mike's clothes include a tab-collared shirt, Cuban heels and a collarless jacket and at this distance in time, it's difficult to recall if these were specifically Mod fashions in late '63. The scooter (a well used GS150 with chrome panels) looks about right though.
The article obviously isn't meant to be taken too seriously, and there's no sense of the friction that was to erupt four or five months later. This sort of thing could not have appeared in a motorcycle magazine after April 1964.
