HCS Alto P Vyrus + Guzzi V8

Two radical racers built 50 years apart but seen together at the 2012 Festival of 1,000 Bikes. The Ducati-powered Vyrus-based Alto Performance hub centre steered machine (left) has been very successfully raced by Phil Read Junior. At the Festival, it was ridden by 8 times world champion Phil Read Senior.
On the right, the 1957 180mph V8 Moto Guzzi, about which more elsewhere. Currently in the Sammy Miller museum and ridden by Sam at the Festival. PNB
