Vintage Easy Rider and Family – 1912 

When Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach created the first motorcycle in 1885, could they have ever imagined the iconic status it would achieve? Motorcycles have long been a symbol of rebellion and individuality, and this 1912 photograph of an Australian family posing with a Henderson motorcycle captures that spirit. 

The image serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of these two and three-wheeled machines and a reminder of the sense of adventure and freedom they represent.
