To the amusement of onlookers, Barry Smith pushes his 500cc Model G through the severe winter floods of 1949 on his way to work at the Redditch Royal Enfield factory.

Barry was the son of Managing Director, Major Frank Walker Smith, and grandson of Royal Enfield co-founder, designer and Managing Director, Bob Walker Smith.
