Back with more of Keith Bryen's photographs.... Aussie privateer and Moto Guzzi works rider and part of the "Continental Circus" in 1950's....

I've posted quite a few blogs featuring photographs kindly loaned me by Keith Bryen, Aussie privateer and then Moto Guzzi works rider in 1957. For earlier ones check over to the RHS "subject listings" and click on "Keith Bryen racing photographs"....
This blog has more of Keith's brief time on the Moto Guzzi factory racing team....you may recall, elated at his elevation to the team, on his return to Australia in the off season he received a "Dear John" letter from Moto Guzzi informing him of their decision to withdraw from racing in concert with Gilera and Mondial and as a result there were no further bikes available.....kinda' gut wrenching I would say.....
