The expert
Based in the Gers department and with over thirty years of experience in the field of velocipedy and vintage motorcycles, Dominique Ballet has opened an antiques shop. A regular at the largest events dedicated to velocipedy—from draisines to vintage motorcycles, including bicycles in France and across Europe—he maintains constant contact with industry professionals, including museums, auctioneers, and collectors. His skills and extensive knowledge of the current market allow him to offer an objective appraisal of all antique pieces, including vintage bicycles, tricycles, draisines, and velocipedes from all eras, from penny-farthings to motorcycles and even classic cars. Old bicycles, the magnificent ancestors of our modern bikes, remain his primary specialty.Bibliography
