The White helmets
The White helmets or "The royal signals on display"
The British army motorcycle stunt team.
The team of 30 volunteer soldiers from the Corps that make up the Royal Signals White Helmets tour Britain from April to September every year demonstrating all the personal qualities demanded of the modern Royal Signals soldier. The riders, all of whom have successfully completed an arduous induction process in the winter and spring months to gain the right to wear the coveted white helmet, are all qualified Tradesmen in the Corps.
By giving their traditional, thrilling and disciplined arena displays on British Millennium Triumph 750cc motorcycles they clearly show all the qualities of teamwork, courage, trust, strength and agility that are needed in the modern Army. In their immaculate uniforms, the Team performs spectacular feats of balance, death defying crossover rides and outstanding acrobatics.
This record-holding team has existed as a recognised organisation since the first public displays of joint precision horsemanship and motorcycle riding were given by instructors and students from the Signal Training Centre in Yorkshire in 1927. Respected and consulted throughout the world, and envied by many, the Royal Signals White Helmets is a popular element of the Corps and makes a valuable contribution to keeping the Army in the public eye, showing off the Corps, and indeed representing Britain at events throughout the world.

Motorcycle song - Bruce Haack & Miss Nelson
Born on May 4, 1931 in Alberta, Canada, Bruce Haack is one of the pioneers of electronic music during the 50's and 60's. His robotic songs were a precedent to the work of Synth Pop artists from the 70's such as Kraftwerk and Gary Numan, and his quasy-psychedelic electronic music was a clear influence in the Space Rock music. Bruce Haack died in September 1988 at the age of 57.

Brammo Empulse
Call us oldfashioned... but a motorcycle without exhaust gas, oil stains and a whole lotta noise isn't a motorcycle at all. It's a battery on wheels.
The environment they say... Hmm, We think of other things to help the environment, less people for instance.
That would really solve the traffic jams... and the environment problems.
However, we do follow the electric cyclemanufacturers like BRAMMO.
Btw: do you all this a "motor"cycle? Or rather an Electrocycle?
The Empulse is an environment friendly & cool looking alternative.
The technology always gets better and faster...
Will these pioneers become the BMW's and Honda's of the next century?
Makes you wonder what the future brings?

Lord of Altamont
Born to be wild... the alternative.
Because we aren't in our 50's with a midlife crisis. We don't ride a Harley. We don't ride easy either.
It may be a little bit faster anyway... all the way.
Roll over Steppenwolf. Here's "Lords of Altamont" !
Greasy & sleazy rocknroll with the attitude of a bad ass motorcycle gang on speed...
Well, they sound like it.
