The revamp of the interior of the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu has greatly enhanced the accessibility of the motorcycle collection. A new bridge from the main entrance leads across to a new mezzanine level from which a short flight of steps leads up to the motorcycle gallery. A lift is provided for wheelchair users.

When we last popped our heads round the door of the workshop at the Sammy Miller Museum, Sammy and Bob were hard at work on their latest restoration, a 1929 Norton CS1 which enjoyed a long and successful career racing on the Irish road circuits.
