EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the 1930s, we are transported back to an era of thrilling motorbike racing. The image showcases the victorious moment when GEH Godber-Ford triumphantly rode his powerful 500 cc DKW across the finish line, securing a prestigious premier award at the MCC Torquay Rally. Set against a picturesque countryside backdrop in Devon, England, this snapshot captures the essence of both speed and serenity. As Godber-Ford confidently maneuvers his motorcycle along a winding lane lined with quaint cottages and lush greenery, it is evident that he has mastered both machine and terrain. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this historic scene. Every detail - from the billowing clouds above to the rugged moorland in the distance - is beautifully rendered in shades of black and white by renowned photographer Bill Brunell. This photograph serves as a testament to Britain's rich motoring heritage and its passion for motorsport. It encapsulates not only an exhilarating moment in history but also pays homage to those who pushed boundaries on two wheels during an era defined by adventure and daring feats. Preserved within the National Motor Museum's collection, this remarkable image invites us to relive an unforgettable chapter in motorcycling history while celebrating GEH Godber-Ford's exceptional skill behind the handlebars
