EDITORS COMMENTS
The Ton-up boys and their girlfriends gather at Trinity Methodist Church, Leigh, Lancashire for a sportsman's service, captured in this iconic print by Crowther. It was the year 1968, amidst the vibrant youth culture of the swinging sixties. The 22-year-old minister, Rev. Richard Plant extended a warm invitation to these rebellious bikers and their companions. Dressed in their distinctive biker fashion, these young men were part of a subculture that embraced speed and adventure on two wheels. Known as 'Ton-up boys', they pushed their motorcycles to reach speeds of over 100 miles per hour - an impressive feat back then! This gathering showcased not only their love for motorbikes but also highlighted the unity within this close-knit group. The image captures more than just bikes and leather jackets; it reflects a moment when different worlds collided - traditional religion intersecting with youthful rebellion. The crowd exudes an air of curiosity mixed with acceptance as they witness this unique congregation inside the church walls. This photograph serves as a time capsule from Greater Manchester's past, immortalizing an era where Hells Angels roamed freely alongside ministers' sermons. It symbolizes both the clash and harmony between mainstream society and counterculture movements during that transformative period. Memory Lane Prints brings forth this slice of history without commercial intentions – reminding us all of our shared heritage and diverse cultural expressions.
