After RotaryBri's success in locating his parent's motorbike I thought I'd try my luck...

Peter




Have just discovered that in my family it wasn't just my mother pictured on a Ariel. My mother in law (on the front) was also photographed on another Ariel, a Sloper 4 valve. Does it still exist?

Some info on the model: https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/23955/lot/113/?category=list&length=10&page=11

There are two sources of information that may be helpful, the first is the
Vintage Motor Cycle Club. (Although I think it should be the V.M.C. - The Vintage Motorcycle Club).

http://www.vmcc.net/....

The second is The Old Bike Mart.

https://www.oldbikemart.co.uk/

Either of these stalwart organisations may like copies of thes photographs for inclusion in their magazines.

Please let us know how you get on. Cheers, Tony.

Hi Tony,

I have put a request in to the VMCC following your suggestion.

Thanks,

Peter
