Two
Stroke Challenge
It
seems ages ago that I was out on a ROG's Run having a great time in
the sun enjoying a blat around Sussex and Hampshire then to whizz off
to Barnsley for the August Bank Holiday to be part of the UK Assam
Association and present my visit to the Enfield Shrine near Chotila.
It was also printed in their newsletter.
While in Barnsley I stayed
at the Ramada Inn, where I left some fliers and also at the Holiday
Inn where the event took place. On reception there there was a biker
who has promised to pay the Museum a visit. I also met a couple of
guys, father and son who had met up to do the Dales and the Moors on
their bikes. The son had come from Lincoln and the father from
Edinburgh. They had good weather as it only became very wet on the
Sunday night and a little on the Monday. Car trouble kept me at home
during the week but on Saturday I was off to Jack Lilleys for the
start of the Two Stroke Challenge they are sponsoring. Portsmouth to
Porto on some not very new bikes and camping too! I have posted the
start on Youtube and can be found on this link:-
They
should be back in about 2 weeks.
Sunday
got me out and about with Wey Valley Advanced Motorcycle Club back by
one run with our coffee break at the Chalet Transport Cafe at
Cowfold. Lucky for me as arriving at the same time were the Sussex
Vintage Motorcycle Club. 
They had been to the Museum last year as a
coach trip. One guy was there on his pre-war Triumph twin and that
very nicely presented as were all their bikes. I spent most of my
time in the car park handing out fliers and talking to people.
Later on in the afternoon was the Shere Hill Climb that the WVAMC went on to visit but I had to head for home and missed out on all the fun. Perhaps next year?

Also
going on over the weekend was Salon Privee where the Museum was also
represented with the Tiger 80 on display.
Monday,
back at the Museum, and reporting back about what I had been up too
and picking up more fliers for next weekend.
