In The Beginning...





During the summer of 2007, I visited the Glen Curtiss Museum in Hamondsport, New York, where they had a rare and very interesting display of antique motorcycles from the beginning of the last century.

Glen Curtiss is probably best known for his work in aviation, and I'd be willing to bet that not many people are aware of Glen's passion for the combination of motorcycles and speed. The pictures above give a glimpse into Curtiss' gift for designing and building motorcycles and engines.

I've put together an Album of a few of the motorcycles that were on display last year, and you can see them all right here: http://picasaweb.google.com/TheBMWrider/CURTISSMUSEUM?authkey=4uJ5vpkB8Lo# Click on the "Slide Show" tab just above and left of the pictures.

Enjoy!
