Banbury Run is on 21st June this year.

It's the worlds biggest gathering of pre-1931 motorcycles in the world. The best bit is that they're all being ridden, not just 'showed'. The entries have been capped at 600 this year. The first bikes set off at 10am and the last at 12 I think. There's usually an overlap of people leaving and others returning by the end so always something to see/smell/hear!

I think if you're not competing there is a couple of quid charge to get in, but there will be some of the most interesting and unusual bikes in the world in attendance. We'll have a couple of bikes there ('28 AJS K8 and '29 Velocette KTT) but I've given up my entry this year so that my cousin (who's over from Oz) can use the bike.

Details can be found here: http://www.banbury-run.co.uk/

Anyway, just thought it may be something different and of interest to some smile

If anyone is thinking of going, avoid the A43 around Towcester like the plague the British Grand Prix is on the same day.
