Date Created8th January 2020CommentsAnnie Swain Those bikes both have telescopic forks so date from no earlier than about 1949. Much later than the other photos in the block you posted earlier today.

Maye Dunn Thanks Annie we were told that all the photos were no later than 1939 so will alter the date.

Annie Swain I will have to research those bikes later when I get home but they are definitely post WW2.
Marty Farty Must be in the 50's by the bikes (I think ). But a great photo. Cool ladiesDavid Youngmin
Would have been an interesting ride Moe

Various rivers had no bridges in those days. According to my parents, they pushed their motorbike through fords.

Tommi Mills
Remember read about Tommy Mcleary and a couple of other riders first through the Lewis Pass hardly any road development when they done it
