Vintage retro style distressed cafe racer inspired design

The San Jose Mile was an infamous annual flat track motorcycle race held at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds in San Jose, California from 1955 until the last lap in 1994. It was well-known as one of the wildest go-fo-broke races on the west coast and attracted the best racers from across America. This design celebrates the race's legacy at the 1975 20-year anniversary mark with checkered flags and a race-prepped Harley tearing up the dirt track's surface.

San Francisco was a hub of activity in the late '60s, and it wasn't all sex, drugs, and rock n roll. The city by the bay was also home to an increasing number of British motorcycles, so a couple of industrious friends decided to open up a shop to cater to motorbikes from across the pond. With a rented two bay auto shop in the city's gritty Tenderloin Neighborhood, British Moto opened their doors in 1968, and it didn't take long for word to get around. The motorcycle repair shop was booked solid by the end of the first month, and maintained a steady business for the next three decades before the two friends decided to hang it up and retire.
