Banbury Run 2009

Anyone who has read this blog for a while will know of our great fondness for old motorcycles and last Sunday found us watching the Banbury Run, which some reckon is the largest gathering of vintage and veteran bikes in the world.
I now have a large collection of photos to sift through and label up but I thought I would share a few with you.

I give you.........The Banbury Push

Banbury Run 2008

Sorry Ladies, I suspect this post will be of more interest to any guys who may pass this way.
On Sunday we went to the 60th Banbury Run which is an Annual Run for pre1931 motocycles
run by the Vintage Motorcycle Club. Please click photos for more detail. more photos to be on my Flickr site in the next few days. This year the event was attended by 650 vintage bikes with riders of all ages and I now have several hundred photos to edit and painful sun/windburn on my face as although it was very cool, the combination of sun and wind caught me out.
