Route sorted, bike fettled. Can't wait to be bimbling across the Lincolnshire wolds, Humber bridge then through Yorkshire.
Anyone else head to the event from East Anglia?

There’s someone by the name of Biot going from Norwich I believe. He’s on the Ducati forum but he might be travelling on the Sunday.

If you fancy a coffee break just after crossing the Humber Bridge , James, we are 10 minutes from the northern end.

I would have been all over this as I live about an hour north of here but my bikes off the road needing friction plates in the clutch and possibly a new slave cylinder.
Enjoy the day, I went a few years ago and it had some lovely cars but not many bikes.

Be heading North soon, looking forward to this one 👍 weather great at the moment,fingers crossed it stays that way.

I would have been all over this meet up but currently having a few nights in Rothbury, Northumberland. I went to the first Newby italian day, which was sparse as to be expected. I’m sure it’s gathered momentum. Plenty of pics please

Saturday saw great weather in the Wirral, a good journey up to Adie’s house and from there to the crown hotel boroughbridge. Beers ordered and outside to enjoy the evening we were joined by Grumpy.

Today brought a change in weather,blue sky yes but a few degrees colder.off to Newby hall we went and timed arrival perfectly to meet big red duke.

Pitch sorted ,gazebo up and bikes displayed, not as many as we had hoped for but next to us was Christy , this year with his moto guzzi hat on and the Yorkshire branch of DOCGB. Overall a good gathering.

Ferrari,alpha,fiat,Lamborghini,lancia……… a good selection to ogle while we were there.we became very popular when the downpours started!, some pics of the day below.

The ride up on Saturday was cracking. Left Peterborough late morning, headed across the Fens into Lincolnshire Wolds, then towards the Humber Bridge.
The roads are great fun.
Popped to bigredduke's once across the Humber for catch up over a cuppa and bacon sandwich ( thanks Paul, most welcome), then headed across Yorkshire via a route recommended by Paul, to Boroughbridge and meet up with Mike and Co.
Beer was drunk, food consumed, the world put to rights!
Today we set up at Newby Hall for a day of exotica, plus the odd ball car/ bike.
The show was winding down from about 3pm, so we packed up and head home. Mike and Co to the Wirral, Paul to the Humber, myself back to Cambridgeshire.
As Mike mentioned, the weather was changeable, so I hopped on the A1, filled the tank and pointed the 12r South, for a damp mundane trip home.
Just over 300 miles covered since leaving home.
All in all a good weekend.

I'm glad you chaps had a good time and flew the flag.

Sorry I couldn't make it. Dacs and I had a soaking on Thursday evening (my fault!), so I didn't mind not getting wet again at the weekend, I managed to stay very busy anyway.. Where does the time go?

[Christy]

Great to see you on Sunday, although i was flying the Guzzi flag, it was great to see the Monster Club represented. The Gazebo came in handy for you

Hi Chris, great to meet you, look forward to next year and the monster anniversary.

Yea ,funnily enough we were only popular during the downpours

See you at east Kirby ?
