This is a photograph from the 4th and final round of the Mullingar Road League which was held in Belvedere Property and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 28th Might 2014 at 20:00. This was the final race in the 2014 series.

TRIUMPH TROPHY TR5. REAR IN HUB SUSPENSION. 500 CC TWIN CYLINDER.

Image by ronsaunders47
The Triumph TR5 Trophy was a British motorcycle produced by Triumph Motorcycles at their Meriden factory. Based on the Triumph Speed Twin, the TR5 was a trials machine created for off road use with a higher level two into a single exhaust and very good handling on public roads. [1] The name ‘Trophy’ came from the three ‘specials’ that Triumph built for the Italian International Six Day Trials in 1948, which went on to win 3 gold medals and the manufacturers group trophy.[two] Featuring prominently in the AMC &quotClass C&quot racing till 1969, the American export models included elements from rhe Triumph Tiger 100 to generate a motorcycle for desert competitors.[three]

From 1951 the 498cc engine (utilised as aircraft generators throughout World War II was updated with a new alloy barrels and heads. The TR5 was replaced with a new variety of unit building twins in 1959.[two] The Trophy name was resurrected for the Triumph TR6 Trophy in 1970 and the Trophy 500 (T100C) in 1971, which in turn was replaced by the Triumph Trophy Trail (TR5T) in 1973. The Hinckley Triumph organization employed the Trophy name for the Triumph Trophy 900 and Triumph Trophy 1200 models.

Renowned Riders
The Fonz , a character played by Henry Winkler in the well-known and lengthy operating American sit-com Pleased Days rode a Triumph TR5 Trophy. Both the character and bike were available as an MPC model kit in the 1970s.

In an attempt to ape Marlon Brando and his 6T Triumph Thunderbird, James Dean bought a Triumph TR5 Trophy. Phil Stern’s popular series of photographs of Dean show him upon this bike which although sold right after the actor’s untimely death, was recovered and restored prior to getting displayed at the James Dean Museum in Fairmount, Indiana.

Doorwerth NL – Kasteel Doorwerth 05

Image by Daniel Mennerich
The original castle, almost certainly wooden, is initial described in 1260 when it was besieged and burned to the ground, soon after which it was rebuilt in stone. In 1280 this second castle was once more besieged and this time the bailey was burned down. This castle probably consisted of a straightforward hall-maintain, two stories higher with 1.20 meter thick walls, and featured a surrounding moat which was fed by the nearby river Rhine.

During the 14th century the castle was continually enlarged. Doorwerth Castle was initially the property of the Van Dorenweerd loved ones. In 1402 Robert van Dorenweerd committed the castle to the Count of Gelre, Reinald IV. In return Robert was granted the castle and its land in fief. About the middle of the 15th century the castle was enlarged again, this time by knight Reinald van Homoet, the 10th Lord of Dorenweerd, who was also the owner of Doornenburg Castle.

Doorwerth Castle reached its largest kind just following the middle of the 16th century below Daem Schellart van Obbendorf, the 15th Lord of Dorenweerd. He made the castle and the group of buildings on the bailey into a unity and adjusted them for far more space and comfort. By 1560 Doorwerth Castle had almost reached its present appearance. About 1637 the bailey was rebuilt to its present look and a dike was built around the castle to protect it from flooding of the river Rhine.

Shortly soon after, the castle changed ownership due to monetary troubles and was granted in fief to a German Count, Anton I van Aldenburg. His successors did not alter the castle or bailey but did acquire far more land. At the finish of the 18th century the castle was no longer inhabited, but was looked soon after by a steward for its owners who now lived in England.

Chantilly VA – Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center – Curtiss P-40E Kittyhawk 03

Image by Daniel Mennerich
The Curtiss P-40 Warhawk was an American single-engine, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground attack aircraft that first flew in 1938. The P-40 style was a modification of the previous Curtiss P-36 Hawk which reduced development time and enabled a rapid entry into production and operational service. The Warhawk was used by the air forces of 28 nations, including these of most Allied powers during Globe War II, and remained in front line service until the end of the war. It was the third most-developed American fighter, following the P-51 and P-47 by November 1944, when production of the P-40 ceased, 13,738 had been built, all at Curtiss-Wright Corporation’s principal production facilities at Buffalo, New York.

Donald S. Lopez, Sr. ( July 15, 1923 — March 3, 2008) was a former U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force fighter and test pilot and till his death the deputy director of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.

Quoting Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Boeing B-29 Superfortress &quotEnola Gay&quot:

Boeing’s B-29 Superfortress was the most sophisticated propeller-driven bomber of World War II and the initial bomber to house its crew in pressurized compartments. Despite the fact that made to fight in the European theater, the B-29 located its niche on the other side of the globe. In the Pacific, B-29s delivered a assortment of aerial weapons: conventional bombs, incendiary bombs, mines, and two nuclear weapons.

On August six, 1945, this Martin-constructed B-29-45-MO dropped the initial atomic weapon used in combat on Hiroshima, Japan. Three days later, Bockscar (on show at the U.S. Air Force Museum close to Dayton, Ohio) dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan. Enola Gay flew as the advance weather reconnaissance aircraft that day. A third B-29, The Fantastic Artiste, flew as an observation aircraft on both missions.

AC Cobra

Image by _ alt3 _
The AC Cobra, sold as the Ford/Shelby AC Cobra in the United States and often known colloquially as the Shelby Cobra in that country, is an American-engined British sports auto produ
ced intermittently given that 1962.

Like numerous British specialist manufacturers, AC Automobiles had been employing the Bristol straight-six engine in its modest-volume production, such as its AC Ace two-seater roadster. This had a hand-constructed physique with a steel tube frame, and aluminium physique panels that had been produced using English wheeling machines. The engine was a pre-Planet War II design and style of BMW which by the 1960s was considered dated. Bristol decided in 1961 to cease production of its engine and instead to use Chrysler 331 cu in (5.4 L) V8 engines. AC began utilizing the 2.6 litre Ford Zephyr engine in its cars. In September 1961, American automotive designer Carroll Shelby wrote to AC asking if they would build him a automobile modified to accept a V8 engine. AC agreed, provided a appropriate engine could be discovered. Shelby went to Chevrolet to see if they would offer him with engines, but not wanting to add competitors to the Corvette they mentioned no. Even so, Ford wanted a vehicle that could compete with the Corvette and they occurred to have a brand new engine which could be employed in this endeavor: Ford’s 260 in HiPo (4.2 L) engine – a new lightweight, thin-wall cast modest-block V8 tuned for high efficiency. Ford offered Shelby with two engines. In January 1962 mechanics at AC Vehicles in Thames Ditton, Surrey fitted the prototype chassis CSX2000 with a 260 ci Ford V8 borrowed from Ford in the UK the 221 ci was by no means sent. Even so, early engineering drawings had been titled &quotAC Ace 3.6&quot. Right after testing and modification, the engine and transmission were removed and the chassis was air-freighted to Shelby in Los Angeles on 2 February 1962.
