The Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum
houses one of the finest collection of fully restored motorcycles
in Europe, including factory racers and exotic prototypes, plus
memorabilia spanning seven decades of motorcycling.
The museum is constantly adding to the collection, at the moment there are over
400 rare and classic motorcycles on display, almost all have been fully restored
and whenever the opportunity presents itself are used to run in classic bike
events.
Sammy Miller was one of Britain’s most successful trials rider’s,
eleven times British Champion and European Champion twice. Sammy Miller was
awarded an MBE for Services to Motorcycle Heritage in the 2009 New Years Honours
List.
The museum originally started with a few restored motorbikes in the buildings
behind his Sammy’s motorcycle shop, then in 1992 Bashley Manor Farm
was purchased and after a considerable amount of work converting the buildings
the Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum opened at the current site in 1996. |
