A lot of love put into this collection and Sammy speaking in his typical Miller identity makes him rather unique. Love what he has accomplished and hope he can continue as long as possible. One comment seconded---the Velo twin that Alan Millyard made is one of my favorite custom classics ever and if I could get a duplicate I would be a happy man indeed!! Great video and the music was a good selection as it served as a gentle, dreamlike backdrop.
Yes fabulous collection first visited when it was a Vincent and a Brough Superior in his trials bike shop long before the Museum existed then saw it grow several times over the years unfortunately i now live well up north and not seen all the latest developments over the last 15 years or so must make an effort to get down their, Though its great to see Sammys videos where he informs us of his latest discoverys, and the fact that he is still as well known as ever now more than 50years since he quit top flight events and im like many who rode in local trials when he did in the seventies followed by my sons who rode in the nineties and he was still winning ussualy the pre 65 class then , The man is an ispiration lets hope his health holds and he can continue for at least another decade.
It certainly is a wonderful collection which has grown more and more in recent times. I met him at the Talmag in 1984, he was a well established name then; it's hard to grasp that that was 40 years ago and he's still going strong.
I completely agree,this has to be one of the best collection of motorcycles ever,truly world class.I have been a couple of times and the collection evolves look forward to next time
I took the family there last week and I must say I absolutely agree with you about the museum but I have to take issue with you on the cafe, it's not the Ritz but it is what it is a cafe. Great production, you got better shots than I did.
It is a great destination for the family for sure, I've had several great days out there, and maybe my opinion of the cafe is a little harsh! Thanks for watching 🙂
Be proud Sammy, be very proud - talk about a 'collateral rampage' - blimey . . . it's A unique! (Not the easiest place to play 'spot the Millyard' though, his creations are usually more 'factory looking' than half this lot could ever dream of! ) Shame about the catering, maybe the Ace Cafe could move in across the road & liven things up a bit. Nice filming btw - impressive : )
Yes Sharon, I hoped I'd made that clear by referring to it as Bashley Manor Tea Rooms, but you're right to point it out in case it wasn't obvious. Great museum regardless 🙂 Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment
Hi Alfred, I think many of the bikes on display have some sort of connection to Sammy and his contemporaries and to the best of my knowledge he never rode a Ducati (except for one famous incident when he crashed an MHR900 at the Isle of Man during a parade lap!). The museum is ever expanding so who knows eh 🙂

Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment, there is indeed evidence of a lot of love there 🙂
Beautifully filmed.
Thank you.
And you are absolutely right. I must do it.
Thank you kindly, yes you must 🙂

Yes Michael, you're quite right; it's always worth a visit regardless of how many times you've been before. Thanks for watching 🙂
Thanks for this , i lost track of the number of brands i've never heard of .
You and me both; as a younger man I was a complete British bike nerd but visits to places such as this remind me of how much I've forgotten 🙂
Thanks for taking the time to post this,DD. 🏍
Thanks for taking the time to watch, it's quite long 🙂

Indeed it was nice to spot a sneaky "Millyard", one of my favourites of his too 🙂
Ah, I'd like some 'Musk'ie type money to restart 'Velocette' & put Allen's '700' into production - 'without changing a thing'! : )
would just like to point out that the Tearooms are separate business to the museum.
