EDITORS COMMENTS
Goldie Fraser, a pioneering figure in the world of motorcycling, is captured in this timeless photograph as she confidently sits atop her Velocette LE motorcycle with registration number 460 BAF. The image, taken in the mid-20th century, showcases Fraser's determination and passion for the sport, which she pursued with unwavering dedication. Fraser's motorcycling journey began in the 1930s, a time when women riders were still a rarity on the roads. Undeterred by societal norms, she embraced the freedom and adventure that motorcycling offered, becoming one of the first women to compete in motorcycle trials and races. Her skill and tenacity quickly gained her recognition within the motorcycling community, and she went on to set numerous records and win numerous awards. The Velocette LE motorcycle, a British single-cylinder machine, was a popular choice among riders during the post-war era for its reliability and performance. In this photograph, Fraser's posture and focus convey a sense of power and control as she prepares for her next ride. The image is a testament to her fearless spirit and the enduring appeal of motorcycling as a means of transportation and personal expression. This photograph is an important historical record of a trailblazing woman in motorcycling history, and a reminder of the passion and determination that continues to drive riders today. The Velocette LE motorcycle, with its classic lines and timeless design, serves as a fitting backdrop to Fraser's story, highlighting the rich history of motorcycling and the indomitable spirit of those who ride.
