Sunday 12th May 2024

A mini Banbury Run for Veteran, Vintage and Girder Fork machines. The route is approximately 60 miles of country roads around East Bedfordshire starting and finishing at Shefford Memorial Hall.

Attached is a copy of the entry form. I have ridden in the event for the last two years and it has been very enjoyable, with at tea / coffee stop and a sit down lunch at the end of the run.

Hi Admin

Roger King's family who organise the run assisted by Will Curry would be very pleased to see you. Numbers have dropped over the last few years due to people dying or getting too old to ride and they would like to boost numbers up to around 50 riders. The lunch venue is not large enough to cope with more than 60 people maximum.

There must be a lot of vintage two strokes out there that are suitable for the run including 98cc Autocycles. The pace of the run suits these machines and there are no steep hills to worry about.

If would also be good if we could attract some girder fork sidecar machines. The same chap and his wife win the best motorcycle & sidecar award every year and he is embarrassed about getting an award because he is the only outfit.

Regards
Butty Bach
