Some pics:-
My steed for the weekend - 1926 Ariel Model B - 557cc sidevalve single
Couple of old uns - veteran Humber and a Revere.
Early 20's AJS Big Port 350cc
Mid 20's Royal Enfield v-twin
Early Scott 2-stroke
Welch prepares to prepare - 1913 Triumph 500
Early 20s Indian Powerplus with sidecar. This bike has shocking brakes despite being very powerful. Failure of said brakes resulted in Paddy Guerin putting it in several ditches on the Saturday and taking a trip over the handlebars. Mrs Guerin, in the sidecar, wasn't amused.
Another shot showing the complex lever arrangement on the tank.
Flat tank Norton sidevalve - Big 4 or 16H - not sure which.
1920's Rudge Multi
Outside the `coffee' stop in Inistioge on Saturday. We visited this village several times during the weekend. The last time, on Sunday morning, we arrived about 11am. The pub was closed. The owner popped his head out and said `will you be wanting a beer lads? We're not open til 12 but if you come round the back door you'll be alright. Just incase any Garda are about...' And he was right. The pub was quite busy.
All in all a cracking weekend.
