Here’s a bit of sad news. The privately run London Motorcycle Museum has closed, the links below shine the light on the reasons why.

Have visited a few times in the past for AGMs in one of their hired buildings, the bonus being a peruse around the displays, as well as some of the stuff in the outbuildings.
Another bit of history/heritage gone.........  Sad

For those of you interested, part of the Crosby Collection from the museum will be sold at Bonham’s Stafford auction on Saturday 19th. October.

That's a shame -but I have to admit I've never been.
On the upside though, maybe some of those exhibits will be ridden again now.
