velocette

Velocette at Ralph Lauren, Paris
spotted via cherry blossom girl photos of vintage motorcycle the Velocette at a photoshoot for the Ralph Lauren store in Paris.  my Dad has been buying, taking apart and rebuilding Velocettes for the last few years, renewing a passion he had as a young teen for this classic British motorcycle....he would be tickled to think his favourite mortorcycle was now the height of fashion!

one of his FIVE precious Velocettes!
