Pretty well known on the bike rally circuit, and biker pubs, do a lot of stadium rock covers. And only 11 miles from Meriden. An on the way home you can make a 3 mile detour and go past the Hinckley factory.

Stand your ground Birchr, my sympathy for others with arthritis... Just had both knees replaced and am now recovering, not fun.... But riding is fun and I certainly hope now I can do more of it with new knees at 71 years old.... lol

Well for a first time event it was a good day. OK I got soaked on the way home (it rained all the way back) Loads of bikes - despite the threatening weather - including a 1902 bike. My only complaint....no badge. How am I supposed to keep Shaun (the sheep) happy when I can't get him another badge! And I forgot my camera....
