When you get into the outskirts of Wokingham it will be sign posted.

I plan to be there about 10.30 - 11ish.

See you all there.

A nice afternoon that saw perhaps 60 bikes enter the show.

The SDR200 won best under 250 and best in show. Judged by the attendees it was a nice STD bike apart from a lovely green paint job.

Best Japanese was won by a GT750A, no argument perhaps, but 2nd was an XS1100 :shock: . I personally thought that at least one Zed would get there in the top 2.

Only photo I took is shown under olden days bikes and gear.

Oh, and by the way, £2,000 was raised for Barnados. I think they enjoyed the day and it shows bikers in a good, giving light.

Yeah good turn out, lovely weather, all sorts there. Surprised that none of the several nice zeds didn't do better. Anyway, here's a few pics...

Nice pics of my bike Adam. GotaZ1B in the background scrutinising detail of other bikes.

Nice to meet yer missus, after prompting for an introduction :lol: and Steves missus Karen and Harry 4448s` missus. Another candidate for the rolling eyes competition methinks :lol:

Seem to have missed Outlaw though saw his bike in the car park.

Cheers. I think she got a little fed up waiting for the bike comp though, it seemed to be in the next 15 minutes for the best part of an hour. We enjoyed the ride home through Twyford/Henley/Marlow.
See you at the Bucks rally!

Had a great afternoon. Forehead and neck are very red and sore at the moment.

Mrs H wasn't too impressed that I would rather talk bikes with Tailiftchris than swap pleasantries with her. Oh well.

You can please some of the people some of the time...........

Had a nice afternoon.Met some really nice Z club members and viewed some truly stunning bikes.

A rather underrated event I think.

Funny to think the company that made such iconic strokers as the YDS7 and LC350 could ever have produced the XS range.

The 250 and 400 are poor, but the 1100 is downright offensive.

Still, they did redeem themselves with the R1 - and the XJR - of course :D

Nice pictures there Redbeard...sorry, didn't realise until after I'd left that it was you who Guy had introduced me to :oops:
Was actually a good afternoon all round, with a nice variation of bikes, only sorry I couldn't stay a bit longer, so didn't get to see who'd won etc.
Would have thought the Z1 contigent would have faired slightly better...especially as one of the judges owned the green / yellow Z1A!!...not sure if he's still a club member, but certainly was back in the late nineties when he would join up with a group of us riding down to the Kent rallies...good times!

Some nice pics there, thanks for posting them.
Lovely Zeds, v/nice Turbo, [wrong size f/wheel?], tasty GT750, i even liked the CB750.
Never liked the Excess eleven either, horrible looking things.
Four pipes rule, anything else is second best.
