Продолжение историй из нашего (ноябрьского ещё!!) путешествия. Хочется хоть какой-то свой личный проект довести до конца.. с этим у меня пока не очень♀️ Дубай, старый город, базар.
Картинка о том, что хорошо быть ребёнком. Рассматривать раскрыв рот от восторга расшитые шлепки с загнутыми носами, а не обходить палатку стороной, потому что уж очень приставучий продавец, а ты покупать ничего не намерен. Хорошо перебегать от одной лавки к другой, гладить цветные ткани, трогать выпуклый узор на тарелках, вдыхать аромат специй... А тебе все улыбаются, а не хватают за руки с воплем: «Друг, купи, примерь!!!» и не нахлобучивают на голову платок, не давая пройти дальше... Это я к чему))))) У Маюшки от базара всегда кайфушки, а у Димы - стресс))) Я промежуточное звено в нашей компании - поглазеть люблю, к продавцам отношусь ровно)) А вообще, рынок симпатичный, продавцы, наверное, турки.. уж точно, не арабы.. Были в будний день в середине дня, народу мало, половина лавок закрыты. Ассортимент тоже близок к турецкому.. Но все равно, посетить стоит, место колоритное))
Finally finished this, I've been maning to draw this machine for a long time and it was a real joy to do.
Here's some information lifted from the Brooklands Website:
1927 Brough Superior 1000cc ‘Works Scrapper’
This motorcycle was built by Freddie Dixon and the Brough Superior Works to be used in an attempt to take the ‘World’s Fastest’ title.
The bike was a heavily modified SS100 1000cc machine and was used extensively by Dixon in 1927. He took the record for the first bike with a sidecar to lap Brooklands at over 100 mph and reached 130 mph on a one way run at Arpajon, France. Mechanical problems prevented a return run, and the record.
In 1928, George Brough competed with the bike with speed victories at Pendine Sands and Doncaster among his successes.
In 1929, the bike was raced by Herbert LeVack, who took the ‘World’s Fastest’ title at Arpajon with an average speed of 129.05 mph over two runs. He also became the first person to ride a motorcycle at more than 200kph (125mph) around the banked circuit at Montlhéry, France.
In 1938, the Brough Works sold the bike to Noel M. Mavrogordato who used it the following year to win the Inter Varsity Sprint at Syston, and a Gold Star for lapping the Brooklands circuit at over 100mph.
The bike remained in the Mavrogordato family until 1998, when the present owner acquired it. He has since run it at many revival events both here and abroad, including the Brighton Speed Trials, ‘Coupes de Legende’ at Montlhery, Goodwood Festival of Speed and the Festival of 1000 bikes.

Plan B Motorcycles Benelli 512M 354 Quattro sketched yesterday at Bike Shed London. This is a great race build with an interesting inclusion of a stopwatch, activated by a mechanical arm attached to a solenoid so that lap times can be recorded on a mechanical stop watch!

John Crudgington’s V8 Special Norton Atlas Hybrid Cafe Racer.. “The engine was built by John Crudgington. He took two Reliant Robin alloy engine blocks with a ½ inch offset for the con rods to run off a single crank. This is now a 1700cc V8 Norton Café racer.”
