London Motorcycle Museum Run 26th June
T'was a fine damn morning - but sadly only 5 motorcycles came along on the ride up to the London Motorcycle Museum at Greenford, North London - weather was absolutely stunning - 30C in brilliant blue skies and radiant Sunshine - after waiting for any late comers we set off at 1015am - taking a Leisurely ride up through Weybridge - Walton - Sunbury - Hayes and then into Greenford. Sadly one of our number fell ill on route - but four bikes with two pillions made it to the museum at around 1115am. We were taken aback at the incredible display - the bike display was simply awesome... in the background a Rock and Roll band played whilst we managed to devour our BBQ in the glorious weather.... Pity only a small number made the trip, but those who did thoroughly enjoyed the day out.
Many Photos taken of the day - I have 'trimmed' them down to a smaller number, which can be viewed as a slideshow by clicking here: [London Motorcycle Museum Slideshow]
