- - Calne bike day (http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=155115)

Right, a village in Wiltshire called Calne has a bike day where the town/village (whatever it is) has stalls and stuff and bikes and bikers descend on it and look at other bikes and stuff.

There was then a meeting infront of Bowood House for a band and hotdogs/burgers (Fat kipper BaP eat LOADS)

There were loads of bikes as you can imagine and I took a couple of pics but just of different bikes instead of all the usual Gixxers and CBR's and stuff.

Heres the pics:

An example of what NOT to do to a bike

A blue bike, blue rim tape, blue screen, blue screen rim, blue bolts holding the blue screen in place, blue bar ends, blue levers, blue brake lines, a wolf on your v piece, blue crash bungs, blue rider pegs, blue pillion pegs, blue tax disk holder, green monster stickers and the finale tastetastic touch...... THE BLUE SNAKE SKIN SEAT

Re: Calne bike day

good pics i went 2 years ago (funnily enough :rolleyes:) and was a quality day

Re: Calne bike day

Cool pics. Looked like a good day out.

Re: Calne bike day

I think there might be some cool videos coming soon too. Lets just say, they were't riding bikes...lol

Re: Calne bike day

Some of the photo's I took yesterday - you've seen some of the more interesting bikes so I'll upload some of the day itself.

This was on a Busa - think it works but not sure if the grab handle is much use...

Re: Calne bike day

Ben...that was pathetic...lol. :-)

Re: Calne bike day

What you didn't see off camera was the small child that had been waiting ages for a go by virtue of the mechanical bull operating man starting off stretchie's run so slowly he needn't have held on!

I was just being nice and didn't wait that small child waiting very long ;)

Apparantly the grab handle was completely straight before the fella took a pillion out on it

That belongs to a bloke inmy office, Chang Jiang or something like that, copy of a WWII BMW, he picked me up in it last summer, was a right giggle, he also owns an Enfield Bullet and a Panther 650 with sidecar, he's eccentric to say the least!
