EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the rugged landscapes of 1930s Devon, England. The image showcases a remarkable sight - a powerful 497 cc Ariel motorbike with a sidecar, ridden by the adventurous R. Newman during the MCC Lands End Trial in Beggars Roost. The motorcycle and sidecar combination stands as a testament to the golden era of motorcycling, where riders pushed their limits on challenging terrains. With Event Entry No: 148 proudly displayed on their vehicle, Newman embarked on this daring journey with determination. The photograph captures the essence of rural life in Britain at that time - an avenue lined with trees leads our gaze towards the winding road ahead. As Newman skillfully navigates his way up the hill, we can almost feel his adrenaline rush and hear the roar of his vintage motorbike echoing through Exmoor's countryside. In this monochrome masterpiece, every detail is meticulously preserved; from Newman's focused expression to his passenger securely seated in the sidecar beside him. Their bronze award serves as evidence of their impressive performance during this prestigious event. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes clear that motorcycles have always been more than just vehicles; they represent freedom, adventure, and resilience. This historic moment captured by WJ Brunell transports us back to an era when motoring was not only a sport but also an art form embraced by passionate individuals like R. Newman who dared to conquer new horizons on two wheels.
