ITALIAN AUTO MOTO DAY

Postby Jim » Sat Apr 26, 2008 7:03 pm

The Ferraris and Lamborghinis were there, the Italian motorbikes were there, and of course BMSC and friends were there in what turned out to be a great day all round! Well over twenty scooters turned up throughout the day- thanks to all the guys who were able to come down and show off their scoots- we truly put on a superb display for the public who really appreciated us being there. And the weather was really good with plenty of sunshine in the afternoon!

There was a prize awarded for The Best Scooter, voted for by the public- this was won by Gary with a massive amount of votes- well done Gary! (An official enquiry is being held regarding some vote rigging going on!!)

Heres just a few pics- I'm sure you guys have some as well!

Here's a few more pics- it's difficult getting good shots at events like this, you take one step back to get more in, and 50 people walk in front of you!

And finally, a better pic of Norm on his gorgeous TV. Well done Norm!

Another very enjoyable day, well done guys for turning up with all your scoots just looking absolutely fantastic! (As usual!) Apologies if you or your scooter aren't featured in this set of pics- I'll get you next time!

Loads more events coming up-next Sunday (May 4th) there is a choice,(or you could even do both!) - The Monmouth Show and The Scootering Pig Roast (check out Bernies posting on this forum) after that, London (May 11th), which we will be sorting out who's going, over the next week. Arrangements for all these events will be posted on here!

Cheerz again,Jim
