What a beautiful Dresda Triton 650. The last one built by the late Dave Degens before he retired. Always an honour to work on this bike for it's proud and only owner Phil.

A previously unseen image of Geoff Duke — is anyone able to identify the motorcycle?

This photograph, along with several others we’ve recently obtained, was discovered in the archive of a journalist who has since passed away. While sorting through his collection, his daughters chose to preserve these images rather than see them discarded and lost forever.

The photographer remains unknown. The image shows Geoff Duke alongside three other riders, and we’re hoping for help identifying both the riders and the location.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

A previously unseen image of Mike Hailwood on a 250cc motorcycle at the start of a race.

This photograph was discovered in the archive of a journalist who recently passed away. His daughters, while sorting through his collection, chose to preserve these images rather than see them lost.

The photographer remains unknown. The image shows Mike Hailwood on a 250cc machine at a Grand Prix, but we’re hoping for help identifying the rider in the background, as well as the two gentlemen flanking the scene.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
