Like it, especially the second one. I think the lack of colour works better with the older bikes.

Thanks, Steve. I agree that the vintage rigs are better in "black & white". The great majority of photos from the 60's on back are black and white so it seems fitting, as an artist, to do them as they are commonly seen, in graphite pencil.
For what it's worth, my "in progress" series on sidecar racing can be viewed at
