Captured in the midst of the exhilarating Brighton-Beer Trial in 1930, this print showcases a motorcycle and sidecar duo that remains unidentified to this day. The event, organized by the esteemed Brighton and Hove Motor Club, attracted passionate motorcyclists from all corners of Britain who were eager to put their skills to the ultimate test.
