Historical Motorcycle Club of Queensland

When I was 15, I joined the Historical Motorcycle Club of Queensland (HMCCQ) and they were a great bunch of people. I smelled the exhaust fumes of such exotic machinery as Vincent, Ariel Square Four, Velocette,..... One of the members (the owner of the Panther) helped me to find my Ariel.

The HMCCQ web address is www.historicmotorcycle.org.au

Here are some of the machines

• Panther
