Great day yesterday and great to meet fellow members and especially those who answered my stupid questions during my rebuild.

Sad I had to leave before winning Best Bike Ha Ha Ha

Anyone know what did win, my vote went to the amazing Norvin Black Shadow near our little group and second to a beautifu Tribsa that took me back to my yout.

Best Honda - I am way too political to comment !!

Lovely ride home back to Warrington over the infamous "Cat and Fiddle" for once in glorious sunshine.

Many thanks to Julie for organising flyers and welcoming all and of course to Tim for exhibition planning and logistics.

Hopefully will run again next year

Couple of pics - wish I'd snapped more !

I overtook this bike on the way there, I waved to the rider and he waved back, I figured he was going to Crich. I wanted to ask the owner what it was but I never saw him, nobody else seemed to know what it was other than being an MV that is. :-\ [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Re my cable routing, the photos I used for guidance tell me that my brake hose should go through the same hole in the yoke - it doesn't.

However as I can't be arsed to rebleed my front brake system it can stay on the 'to do' list for now. :)

Sorry I missed you to say goodbye Clunker, I thought that little MV was lovely.

No worries Dave, how did the tram ride go? I hope that other guy got his full penny's worth of rides. Now this bike seriously had me drooling but I've always had a thing for the Hurricane, I'm sure Honda had this bike in mind when they styled the first 650 Nighthawk :-* [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Another Beezer, this bike was incredibly huge irl, you had too see it in the flesh to appreciate the size of it. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

And finally a Z1, I can forsee a day when Z1 owners will start putting Zephyr 750 paint jobs on their bikes to give them some awesomeness! [ Guests cannot view attachments ]   8)
