EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1979, we see Geoffrey Robinson MP, representing Coventry North West, along with his family paying a visit to the Meriden Triumph workers' cooperative. This historic moment captures the essence of industry and labor in the 20th century. As an executive director at Triumph Motorcycles, Robinson's presence holds great significance. The image showcases Marie Elena Robinson, wife of Geoffrey Robinson MP, sitting proudly on the latest Bonneville special model motorcycle. It is worth noting that this particular model was being exported to the USA at that time. The sleek design and powerful engine represent Triumph's commitment to excellence in motorbike manufacturing. Geoffrey Robinson's involvement in politics adds another layer of interest to this photograph. As a member of parliament and a prominent figure within his party, he demonstrates his dedication not only to public service but also to supporting local industries like motorcycles. This picture serves as a reminder of Coventry's rich industrial heritage and its contribution to Britain's thriving motorbike industry during that era. It encapsulates the harmony between political figures and working-class communities while highlighting the importance of family support for those involved in public life. Preserved by Coventry Telegraph Archive through Memory Lane Prints, this print offers us a glimpse into history – an era when motorcycles were symbols of freedom and innovation amidst changing times.
