A Constellation amongst ponies
Just an old snap of a Royal Enfield Constellation on tour taken at Princetown, Dartmoor in 1958.
Royal Enfield Constellation and ponies roam free in Dartmoor.
Hello Ken. Sorry, didn't get a notification of your comment for some reason so have only just seen it. Yep, bike luggage has certainly come on a bit hasn't it, at least in function if not in style. I can only imagine how damp clothes in that suitcase would have gotten given a good downpour!
That old touring favourite, a leather suitcase strapped on the carrier, something else you don't see these days.
