    I love the idea that Michaelangelo simply removed all the marble from the block that wasn't David...

    BRILLIANT video, blimps into the past TODAY. I once was a proud owner of a 1938 production KSS

    I have enjoyed riding slowly thru old graveyards on my motorcycle’s over the years. There is a special feeling you get when stopping to take a break from a long ride to pay tribute to all of the souls that are there.

    Hey Phil, my dad owns a 1937 MSS that I have had the pleasure of riding ( he still rides it) throughout my life. These motorcycles are absolutely fantastic but you have to have ridden them to truly understand. I was able to take the Velo to a local racetrack in South Africa for a couple of laps which il never forget. Velocettes have somewhat of a following where ever they ended up. I had the pleasure of seeing a MkVIII get rebuilt over a number of years that eventually went to race in England. Thanks for your channel.

    An excellent spokesman for Velocette ..... A velo virtually saved me from having a nasty accident in my teens due to its A1 handling .......

    Great video and a fabulous Mk eight. Most handsome motorcycle ever designed (in my opinion)... I've ridden my Thruxton for 52 years so far, so really good to see these warriors in use as designed. Good on you Sir!
