dlaing Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Mods and rockers?? Glad to see English culture from the 1960s has arrived Stateside! Guy 74576[/snapback] Yah, it took the slow-boat... I guess the culture has been here, but always on the fringes. Wish I brought my camera today. I arrived late and saw maybe five rockers and forty mods. I guess the mods kicked their asses and all the rockers split except for the tough ones like Todd and Rich. But it was a glorious sound when they fired up the scooters!

Guzzirider Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 There is a scooter club which meets in a pub near me every Wednesday and to give them their due, they always turn out in numbers whether it rains, snows or shines. Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it was a glorious sound when they fired up the scooters! Were you sniffin' too rich of Tuneboy fumes on the way there David? I did get a hint of much Castor oil though... the patchouli of the mods perhaps? Surely you meant that it would've been glorious to hear all of the different twins light off. Glad you made it, albeit briefly. Rich and I purposely left late as to hopefully avoid any carnage or oil misted roads. Great weather made for a great turn out. Pics HERE.

Martin Barrett Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Great weather made for a great turn out. Pics HERE. 74650[/snapback] Thank you for sharing. Some fine bikes there. Weather wise we're just cold and damp and greasy and wet. I seem to be living my charmed life and missing the worse of the rain. It always seems to have a slight break when it's Guzzi time (commute to and fro work) I don't mind so much getting wet on the way home, but it's not so much fun on the way to work.

dlaing Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Were you sniffin' too rich of Tuneboy fumes on the way there David? 74650[/snapback] Atleast it does not stink like the PC alternative.... I would have mad more of an effort to get there on time, if I had a clue there would be a good turnout. At the rally I only counted a couple of Ton Up gents.... And here there were only a few SoCal Geezers.... Oh, well. But, Great Pics, Todd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
