The art of John Catchpole’s builds

I was interested to see and read Ron Savage’s letter about John Catchpole in OBM432. Here are my drawings of three of his specials, including the Scott Sprint Special which, I believe, was the first Scott to achieve 100mph. The Scott trials special used a Velocette gearbox. I hope fellow readers find these interesting.
