I remember a chap had an Arial Square Four with a sidecar on at the G.E.C. at Witton in B’nam in the 50s. We all used to queue up at the bottom of Wyrley road , and the copper used to call him to the front of the queue(think he had a passion for one) and when he called us all on, the Square Four used to pull away with the sidecar almost going sideways up the road, leaving a black mark from the sidecar tyre. And the noise, fantastic.Those were the days of the Black Shadow?
