LES
GRAHAM 
I
was also fortunate enough to meet Les Graham. He stayed with us for 1 night
when he came to talk about Road Racing at our local motorcycle club 'Lanarkshire
M.C.C'. He made a great impression on me as he was such a
genuine
person, and such a good road racer !! Here is a signed photo he gave me....it is of a Works A.J.S. 500 cc 'Porcupine' which is the type of bike he was racing
on at that time.
The one below, he is on a 500cc. 4 cyl. 'MV Augusta'
.
Les Graham was the 500cc. World champion in 1949.
