Manufactured by Goachem S. Richardson of Beach Cycle & Motor Works, 66 Main Road, Penguin, Tasmania.
Some five Beach motorcycles were constructed between 1913 and 1916 using TDC engines, with one powered by Peugeot.
A talented inventor and staunch member of the local community, he had earlier built and repaired bicycles at 117 Main Rd Penguin. In 1908 he constructs a pedal-powered flying machine which made the first successful controlled flight in Australia.
