I always get a lick out of watching these old motorcycle videos

I saw this video before, but still enjoyed seeing it again.
We didn't have the Mods and Rockers here - or at least in this part of the world, and there wasn't any café racing or doing the ton.
Riders here were not hooligans and didn't get any bad press.
I wore a cheap leather jacket back in the 50's because a real motorcycle zipper jacket cost too much. No helmets, just a bare head or a biker cap.
As a matter of fact, I didn't get a zipper jacket until I came back to bikes in 1992

We just had those dirty rotten bikers that you would not take home to meet your mother
