    1911 Racycle

    Recently I was in the South Island of NZ and visited the widow of a recently deceased motorcyclist.
    There was a large box of papers in the backyard and I was given permission to take anything that took my fancy as the whole lot was going to be burnt in a few days time.
    Among a lot of other stuff I saved was an envelope that contained this 1911 Racycle brochure.
    It must be of interest to someone on this forum so please enjoy and if anyone wants a copy I'll do that also.

    I've always thought the Raycycle was a beautiful motorcycle. I guess the Miami Cycle Co. dropped the Raycycle when they bought the Merkel, which was a pity. I have a Raycycle wrench that I assume is a bicycle wrench. I believe there are a couple of Raycycle motorcycles in California. Thanks for making the effort to post those pictures Peter.
