Motoring Section February 2012

 

Features from around the world of motoring


Welcome to the motoring section. This section is edited by Barry Martin, a lifelong motoring enthusiast, who has re-engaged with his passion after his retirement from a lifetime of working in construction and plant hire.

 

Barry Martin

Barry says " As a baby boomer, I remember the austerity of the fifties and the "make do and mend" mindset that we all had to have. Five decades on after buying my first motorcycle, a Francis Barnett Plover for three quid and, after a reasonably successful career in construction, I am in a slightly better situation in that I have all the time that I need to indulge my passion for all things motorised.


In this section I hope to share with you some the awesome technical innovatios of the present, and also some of my nostalgia for the best of the past.....
