The book opens with the first beginnings of bike racing in the London area — at High Beech — in 1928 and continues with the pre-war history of the North Circular as one of Britain’s new ‘arterial’ roads, and?the establishment of the Ace ‘road-house’ at Stonebridge Park in 1939. Then, Barry ‘Noddy’ Cheese, one of the Ace’s original ‘ton-up’ boys, paints a graphic picture for us of the excitement of life at the cafe in the 1950-1960s. The controversial Dixon of Dock Green TV episode is covered as is the making of the classic film The Leather Boys and?the book goes on to describe events leading up to the closure and subsequent isolation of the Ace with the construction of the new bypass in the 1990s. The?story is brought up to date with the resurrection of the cafe’s fortunes under Mark Wilsmore and the fantastic reopening celebrations in September 2001.

Cafe Racer A café racer is a bike that has been modified to race from a café to some different predetermined place. The maximum famous café (stated caff) became the Ace Café in London. Legend has it that motorcycle riders would race from the café, after choosing a sure record at the duke box, and go back before the record finished. This feat frequently necessitated achieving 'the ton' or a hundred mph. In England all through the 60s, low-cost motorcycles that would achieve the ton, were few and a ways among. For the common worker and motorbike owner, the most effective choice of getting the desired performance become to track the motorcycle with diverse racing options. effectively available tuning elements made the task simpler. Riders would upload extra elements as their budgets allowed. As riders delivered more and more elements, a popular look started to materialize - the café racer look. The standard specification of an early café racer might be: Swept-lower back pipes Clip-on's or 'Ace' bars everse cone Mega's (quick for megaphone mufflers - very a great deal a misnomer). Later motorcycles used Dunstall's, which have been silencers produced via tuning legend Paul Dunstall TT100 Dunlop tires Large carburetors Rear sets For many riders, having the café racer appearance turned into sufficient. but while the market for tuning parts absolutely started out to take off inside the mid '60s, the list of available and suitable components grew. except engine tuning parts, some of companies began to provide substitute seats and tanks. those replacements resembled the current trends in motorbike racing: seats with humps, and fiberglass tanks with indentations to clean clip-ons and the rider's knees. more high priced aluminum versions have been additionally available.

Ton Up! A Century of Café Racer Speed and Style focuses on the story of the ton-up boys and their café racers. But it's much more than just that. Illustrated with historic and modern photos and featuring a text by one of the world’s motorcycle historians, it's really the story of motorcycle speed and style evolved from the early 1900s right through today. Cafe racers are most associated with the young, rebellious rock-and-rollers of 1960s Britain. These riders created the quintessential café racers—fast motorcycles customized to resemble the racing bikes of the period. They were called “café racers” because their riders raced on public roads, from one café to the next. The goal was to do “the ton” (exceed 100 miles per hour) on these runs, which led to their designation as “ton-up boys.” Today, ton-up culture is more popular than ever and recognized worldwide with a following of young and long-time riders alike.With Ton Up!, enjoy a scenic ride through the history of this vibrant scene.
