I just found this photo, and upon reading more about it, I find this is a Rugby team!
Yes, they actually played Rugby on motorcycles! According to the poster of this photo: this is the Douglas AFC team. The photo was taken at the factory grounds at Kingswood Bristol... (That's Bristol UK, not Bristol TN.)
Good lord, I'll bet this was quite a sight to see...rugby is a really scary sport as it is, without adding the motorcycle in the mix.

I wonder if I just got it misunderstood or what? I'll have to check some facts...but all the same...very cool bikes...
Don't ya think?
