Hi all,

Every year (recently) for the May bank holiday there has been a big bike bike 'meet' in Paignton (the town next to me & Gnatman).

Here's a few pictures, I would've taken a lot more, but it's difficult getting a 'none blurry' photo when you have a 3yr old dragging you around!!

Pirates of the Caribbean anyone??:

Thought this was different, even for a trike! I thought it was really nice of the guy to bow for me - I don't get that enough Grin

:

Hey Fozzer - looks like your not the only with a 'trusty co-pilot':

Could be cool - not sure about the ironing board though:

Now this I like!! I love the craftmanship that goes into these:

Cheers,

TSC.

Not sure on that one Carl, unfortunately I didn't get much chance to look at anything in great detail as 'Jr tsc' was ragging me around everywhere.

Some lovely, and some strange looking bikes there Wink

Although the ZX-10 trike is some kind of abortion!

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!
