Further info
All money collected on the evening will be given to the Poppy Appeal at the end of the year. We aim to smash last years total and collect a massive £10,000.

As we are sure you are aware the Poppy Appeal is a very worth while cause, with hundreds of ex-servicemen and women looking for financial aid from the Royal British Legion every year.


The Royal British Legion and (Poppy Appeal) is the largest charity in the UK supporting the services. For more details visit
http://www.rblr.co.uk or http://www.britishlegion.org.uk

You don't have to be a member or ex-member of the services to be a member of the Royal British Legion.

200 bikes were counted in.. I was glad I ducked into the tent at 20:30. One minute it was OKish and then wooshh.

Bike of night was a ariel square 4, hard choice, a couple of dukes were looking likely, the organiser favouring a desmo. But manged to steer him away from that as they are a little common.

Last few bikes who turned up came from wales and road over the bridge into the weather, came to weston and then rode back into it. SO big cheers to those who made it.

Will be uploading photos tonight to the flickr website.

****************************
The Ducati Roadshow will be rolling into a town near you this summer as the Italian manufacturer brings its event truck and demonstration fleet to a host of events and bike meetings.
The demonstrator fleet showcases the 2009 range including the legendary Monster, the stunning 1198, the cornering gem that is the 848, the gloriously fun packed Hypermotard as well as the versatile Multistrada and the classic designed GT1000.

The latest addition to the test fleet is the new Streetfighter ‘S’ version boasting 155hp and 85lb-ft of torque harnessed by Ducati Traction Control and Ohlins suspension.

To take a test ride at any of these events, riders must have a valid motorcycle licence (both parts required) and appropriate clothing and safety gear. Local dealership staff will be on hand to give expert technical and service advice and trained riders will there to guide all test rides.
