The Motorcycle Museum of Vransko, Slovenia: Here’s a note from Janez Grom, the Director:”I have just seen your nice web page on the internet. I must say it is very nicely designed.

I have seen that you have a list of motorcycle museums with links. I kindly invite you to visit the website of our private museum.It holds the biggest collection of racing TOMOS 50cc bikes in the world dating from 1961 to 1982.

We have one of the largest European collections of Puch motorcycles before 1914.Because of our geographic position we have decided to make and present to the public a fusion of eastern and western motorcycle history.Therefore we have in our collection both American, Italian, English, French, German, as well as motorcycles from Poland, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Litva, Estonia, USSR.All these machines are pre-WWII.

From “P.P.” (June 2012): “I was just looking through your “Museums” page and thought I should suggest another: The Glenn Curtiss Aviation Museum in Hammonsport, New York.

While the museum is more aviation oriented than motorcycles, there is a lot to see, including about fifteen antique bikes.

The collection runs from a 1903 Curtiss to a 1936 Indian with sidecar, with a 1924 Ner-A-Car and 1915 Williams Clady rotary engined machine.

The aviation displays are extensive and you can watch the craftsmen at work restoring various projects. Glenn Curtiss was one of the very early motorcycle and aircraft pioneers, competing with the Wright brothers and eventually being forced to collaborate with them in World War One, forming Curtiss-Wright Company.

Hammonsport (Bing Map) is located in the Finger Lakes district of upper New York State, a wonderful place to ride, and not far from the legendary Watkins Glen racetrack. Great roads, lots to see.”
