Dragons gate, built 1968 or 1969, three or four years after that photo was taken.

Flat tires, broken window, stolen lenses... sad! Any idea of the story behind this photo?

Interesting it appears to have 8-spoke wheels.

Frankfurt am Main, Germany's central city plaza "Roemer". Blue car in foreground is a German-built Lloyd Alexander, probably an LP600; caption incorrectly lists it as a Goggomobil. https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-transport-transp...d0%26pl%3d

I think in the next few seconds the scooter pulled ahead and won the race. With the pit crew onboard at that.

it’s clear who’s getting to the flag first here, but he doesn’t have his pit crew, so maybe not a fair fight.
