EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the early days of 1954 when Bertie Goodman, the Sales Director and Road Tester at Veloce, decided to put their products to the ultimate test. Known for his unwavering belief in quality assurance, Goodman brought a development spring-frame Velo equipped with a powerful racing engine to an idyllic island setting for a thorough work-out. Captured within the frame is Kates Cottage, serving as a picturesque backdrop that adds charm and character to this historic moment. The image exudes an air of anticipation as Goodman prepares himself for what promises to be an exhilarating ride. His determination shines through his eyes as he sits astride the magnificent machine - ready to push it beyond its limits. This photograph not only showcases Goodman's commitment towards ensuring excellence but also pays homage to Velocette's dedication in crafting exceptional motorcycles. It serves as a testament to their relentless pursuit of perfection and innovation during those pioneering years. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate the passion and audacity that fueled these early motorcycle enthusiasts. This print encapsulates both history and adventure; it invites us into an era where testing boundaries was paramount and where every twist of the throttle held endless possibilities.
