Moto Guzzi V7/Ambassador/Eldorado/850 Probably redirect all these to a single-page history of this series. Main articles on each one later, if desired.
Wire wheels: Wire wheels#On motorcycles says only main article: Motorcycle construction#Wheels, but that is not a main article, it is a subsection. Bicycle wheel is a better article, but none of these 3 actually explains how spokes support the wheel pre-stressed w/compression.
@Pburka: Hi, sorry, I forgot to put the sources. For Betty, the source is the 1939 England and Wales Register, where she's listed as a sports journalist.
In 1939 Women's Land Army registry, Nancy is listed as Nancy Warner Debenham, aged 42, occupation sports journalist, where it's also noted she is a driver. However, after I saw your note, I looked this up again. I can't find any other records for Nancy Warner Debenham outside the Land Army registry. When I look Nancy up in the 1939 E&W Register (using the address given in her Land Army registry), it lists her name as Nancy S. Warner, sports journalist who is also a driver, and her DOB as 30 Aug 1895. This corresponds to a Nancy Smallwood Warner, born to Henry Warrington Warner and Florence Warner. She didn't have any sisters, according to the 1901 and 1911 Censuses. In 1964, she married Laurence Herbert "Laurie" Cade (who wrote a book about motorcycles and was also a motoring journalist) and she died 9 March 1979.
They are also referred to in articles frequently as twins. I think there's a possibility they weren't sisters and that Debenham wasn't their last name, and that they just posed as sisters as part of a double act, and they continued to use the name as journalists. I don't know what you want to do with this information. —KaliforniykaHi!23:49, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
