Might as well get on the bandwagon although to pick out five British bikes is a little unjust of me when I consider all the wonderful marques there have been in this country over the years. So naturally my favourite five would be from my own collection and ridden regularly in strict order of rotation ofcourse! Here goes:-
1949 Claud Butler "Avant Coureur"
1949 Carpenter.
1948 Holdsworth "La Quelda"
1950 W.P.Newton
1950. Hobbs of Barbican "Clubweight"
Doug. Smith
North Dorset
