My love of motorcycles and actually anything with 2 wheels started from a pretty early age going for long breakfast run rides with my grandfather (William Billson). I still remember he use to strap me to him with a belt of some sorts. He lived in Port Elizabeth, South Africa so I only got to spend time with him when our family went to visit for holidays as we lived in Johannesburg. I always looked forward to heading off on new adventures on one of his many bikes. Bill was a member of the kickstart club and he had fully restored vintage bikes ranging from a KS 350 Velocette, two BSA's, a Royal Enfield Bullet, a Norton Commando, Matchless Silver Hawk, BMW R60/2 and an Ariel. He stuck to mainly British motorcycles with the exception of his BMW :-) which he loved.
