Auto Motas Scooters Pics 1950's ?

Interesting find today while going through some old photos at my dads, found these of the old Auto Motas scooter shop in Chester and Davies cycle shop which look like around the end of the 1950's to me. My dad was a keen photographer and took thousands of photos of everything and anything, so i thought I would post these up for nostalgia. Looks like Lambretta LD Mk 3's and a nice Heinkel bubble car parked up outside, I zoomed up the shop sign which I thought was also interesting.

Aberdovey Rideout Pics

Long hard day in the saddle which started off pretty wet and miserable and reached a 50/50 turn-back decision point at Bala where the weather had turned for the worse and it had got considerably colder. However not to be beaten the intrepid riders of CSC carried on to the petrol stop at Dolgellau where the weather started to brighten up and the decision was made to carry on all the way to Dovey, which was bathed in sun when we arrived, it turned out a really good ride on fantastic twisties with splendid Welsh scenic views. Riders present were Dave, Bernie + Tracy, Steve, Graham, Brian, Brian Gosling, Peter + Alison.
