"G.D. BROWN’S DOUGLAS MOTORCYCLES
The racing bike in the sidecar was purpose-built by racing motorcyclist Graeme Brown for competitions and record attempts at Brooklands. It has a 1926 TT frame with a 1928 499cc OHV special long stroke engine. The touring bike with sidecar, used to bring the racing bike to Brooklands in the 1930s, is a 1930 S6 model with a 600cc side valve engine, with dry-sump lubrication, designed by Freddie Dixon. Graeme Brown [1903-1996], long-time President of the London Douglas MCC, was a lifelong Douglas enthusiast, owning his first in 1923. Aged 23, he opened a motorcycle business in Godalming, as Surrey agent for Douglas. He raced at Brooklands from 1924 to 1935, winning the Essex Cup in 1925 and the J.A. Prestwich Cup in 1932. When manufacture of Douglas motorcycles ceased in 1957, he bought up the factory spares, and continued supplying these on a world-wide basis. The bikes and sidecar have not been altered since they last came to Brooklands in the 1930s."
