The Timing Chest is a hobby for me. I am passionate about vintage, veteran, antique motorcycles. Being able to show them to others is what this page is all about.
I visit vintage motorcycle events and record some of the activity for my own benefit. However, it makes sense to share the stories about the motorcycles and the people who own them.
My special cause is to encourage the younger generation to take part in our hobby. Some of these videos are for the younger generation, or those of us who are less knowledgeable on how to start a vintage bike.
I go to the main UK events such as the Pioneer Run, Kop Hill Climb, The Banbury Run and Goodwood Revival. However, some of the more interesting motorcycle events are those that are run in Europe.
Pre-1931 vintage motorcycle events are usually the most eclectic runs. There is a wide range of vintage and veteran motorcycles. Almost all of them had girder forks but vary from a bicycle frame with an engine to 1,000 cc V-Twins
