This year is bought to you by a used organising team and along with all the elderly favourites, they will be joined by the Mutts Nutts Rolling Road, Live Rock Bands and other street entertainment. There will be even more theme nights, and new for 2011 Fancy Dress nights.

I'm going to be heading up too with a few friends if the weathers nice all the way from Exeter. I'm not hard to miss I'm a Yellow SV (the one in the signature) with another SV in Blue and a Naked Kawazaki ER6 if we do end up going up. Might dog leg over and ride through cheddar gorge but we are going up a lot earlier and riding the back route all the way from Exeter so if I'll be collapsed at the Bike Night. First time I've ever been up would love to see some fellow SWB.com'ers

Grit..... tell me about it, they've just regritted the road where i live.
As for weston tonight thats exactly what i thought.

Don't know why they have moved it down the far end, it was better when it was closer to the town.... not so far to walk for food. But like you said loads of bikes which is always a good thing.

Unfortunetly the organisers hands are tied by the Council. Pier Square would have been much better but this is the best the organisers were able to get the Council to agree to. Last night we ended up on the grass due to the final run going on the front.
The organiser have managed to get more traders this year and the opening night had a band playing.
