Not great pics technically, grotty old day and cold too. But me and Mr LPH braved the chavs on quadbikes and headed to Southend Shakedown. A good turn out thanks to the sunshine first thing.

Funny thing was with all those thousands of bikes I didn't see another BMW 650GS or KTM 990 Adventure the whole day!


Here's our bikes parked up



A few of those along the Esplanade



And an idea of how many were there looking in both directions!

My original Colt model 1851 Navy pistol.
(with matching serial numbers)



They were produced from 1850 -1873.
This one was made in Hartford, Connecticut, USA in October 1859 and sold at a hardware store in New Hampshire.
How it came to be 'down south' is undoubtedly through the misfortunes of it's original owner during the American Civil War (1861-1865).

A number of these same model pistols were also manufactured in Colt's London Armoury, near Vauxhall Bridge in London.

Ace Cafe posted 147 pics of bikes at the event on their FB page.
Oddly enough nearly all of them are of cruisers or scooters although not what I see in your pics.
