Here are a few of the interesting things that were hooned around the little street circuit last weekend

Phil Reads Paton

Some AJS & Matchless devices

A lovely Excelsior

A very quick Gilera

A brace of Vintage Motosacoche's which went darned quick for their age

A lovely Henderson

Nice Velocette

A pair of NSU Neckersulm (not quick but stately)

Kreidler 50cc things (if you ever see these race, you'll never take the piss out of a moped again)

I'd never seen one of these before, Arisco Moto

Not quite sure about this one:

Now for some sidecars

Nice Weslake Triumphs

Stunning Norton

Rare Ducati outfit

And last but not least a Guzzi outfit.
