Acrobat Attached Balance Balancing Bike Called Feat Feats Involving Motor Cycle Practise Promenade Stunt Stunts Trapeze Troupe
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the daring and skillful practice session of The Promenade Percies, a motorcycle acrobat troupe, in 1934. The image showcases a rider expertly balancing on a trapeze, which is ingeniously attached to the back of a motorbike. The bike, a vintage machine with its engine roaring, is in motion, adding an extra layer of complexity to the acrobatic feat. The Promenade Percies were known for their thrilling acts that combined the adrenaline rush of motorcycle stunts with the grace and precision of circus acrobatics. The historical significance of this photograph lies in the fact that it offers a glimpse into the past of motorcycle stunt performances, which have since evolved into a popular form of entertainment. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the bravery and talent of these early motorcycle acrobats. The balancing act on the trapeze, while attached to a moving motorbike, is a testament to the incredible physical abilities and coordination of the performer. The rider's focus and determination are evident as they maintain their balance, suspended in mid-air, while the bike weaves its way along the promenade. This photograph is a fascinating reminder of the rich history of motorcycle stunts and the incredible feats that have been achieved on two wheels. The Promenade Percies' practice session serves as an inspiration for modern-day motorcycle stunt performers and a reminder of the thrill and excitement that comes with pushing the limits on a motorbike.
