    This pic appeared in Pix on 26th August, 1950...in a feature article on Wollongong... trove.nla.gov.au/work/232852654 - Trove link to the Pix feature article...then scroll down a couple of pages... 'Severely simple are the pleasures of Wollongong's motor-bike brigade. They prop their cycles against the curb, talk and joke, then explode off into the night.' - Pix's caption... A number of the other pics from this SLNSW series also appeared in the Pix feature article...

    https://www.flickr.com/photos/195176867@N05 My mum and dad were still in the throes of being first time parents when this was taken. I was not so much as a thought bubble. They would have been very disapproving of this sort of activity. My maternal grandfather, on the other hand, could well have been chucking. He fitted a sidecar to his Indian 500 when courting my grandmother.
