| I never go to London without a visit to my favorite place, the ACE CAFE.. A real old timer hang out for motor heads. Every day the feature a different gathering, cafe racers, vintage motorcycles, classic cars, and today vintage military vehicles. |
 |
| No matter what the specialty of the day is, there are ALWAYS interesting motorcycles at the ACE.. |
 |
| Not every day you see a Daimler Ferret on the road... |
 |
| The ACE CAFE is like an old timers retirement home for motorcyclist... |
 |
| Nothing like a family outing in a tank.. This man was letting his young daughter drive their tank to the ACE.. It is times like this our children never forget... |
 |
| The gentleman on the left is Mark Wilsmore, the owner of the ACE and a true motor head.. |
 |
| My wife is probably thinking, "What the hell am I doing here???" :) |
 |
| The London Motorcycle Museum is located in an old farm building inside London. It is not over done and has the feeling a biker museum should have.. The building is OLD and even the motorcycles are not over restored. |
 |
| Look at the excitement in her eyes! The joy of looking at old motorcycles......no wonder I love her.. :) |
 |
| No British museum is complete without some Beatle memorabilia. |
 |
| This was the "Triumph Room" with just about one of every Triumph motorcycle ever built and some cool race bikes and prototypes.. |
 |
| Here is an amazing home project.... some enthusiast converted his BSA triple into an overhead cam motor!! Not easy to do.. |
 |
| Another "project", converting a Triumph triple motor into a V-6. Certainly more than a weekend project.. |
 |
| The world famous Slippery Sam. Multiple winner of the Isle of Man.. |
 |
| Above and below is a Swallow Side Car. The Swallow company was founded in 1929 by William Lyons that went on to build cars that later became known as Jaguars.... |
 |
| A prototype Triumph motor,,, rather wide. |

| The last time clock from the original Triumph motorcycle factory.. |
