wouldnt bother if I were you we went a few years ago its in the village hall and if you spent half an hour there you would have to go round 3 times.there were 4 bikes there the rest of the stalls were selling toys and crap.

Ive lost count of the number of times Ive seen bikes pull out of Willingham and cane it towards Market rasen thinking it impresses people,well sorry but it doesn,t and this is the result a camera van sat waiting for them.Having said that the knob in the porsche deserves everything he got and more.obviously he decided to floor it then saw the camera so slammed the brakes on,He's lucky one of the learners didn't run into the back of him,dare say if they had it wouldn't have made the news (speed camera causes accident)

Think I might well have a look around this if anybodys interested in a winter meet. http://www.donington-park.co.uk/events/2013/02/03/classic-japanese-motorcycle-show/

Got that right Dave-when I went to Lincoln last week the A617 was closed at Kelham Bridge. A lot of water around Newark at present, don't think I've ever seen the Trent that high.

Its Dunham bridge, the way round is to go into Gainsborough and turn south you pick the original road up at the traffic lights at the fosdyke.

oops forgot you go a differant way to me,but Dunham bridge is shut as well.

thats the mark 2 version with the rack on the back,t bar gear change as opposed to the knob unadjustable handlebars and the shorter seat with the warning not to take passengers, I seem to think it had a 4 speed sturmey archer geared rear hub whereas the mk 1 had a 3 speed. I had the mk 1 in blue.

Apparently impossible to wheelie something to do with the large rear small front wheel combo I always wanted one but got a second hand Raleigh Grifter instead, which would wheelie

thats not true, my mate used to be able to do a 13 pumper on mine
