Brough neck


All the Brough-ness in Paris brought to mind one of my all time favourite bikes.
The '27 'works scrapper' in the Brooklands museum.
Built by Freddie Dixon and the Brough works.
Run on Pendine Sands by George Brough.
Raced by Le Vack.
The first plus 100 mile an hour sidecar lap at Brooklands.
Great pedigree .... for a mongrel.
