I should say so. Not far from us but when I saw it's £30 each per day decided to stay at home

If you turn up on your Harley as an exhibitor it's £15 each on Sunday.
Your bike's secure and undercover and you can leave when you want.

This is a cracking venue for a ride out.

Old brit bikes, hots rods, and rock n roll!!!

I'll be there - its a great day out..............

However, I will have to go in my van as my bike's a bit poorly at the moment

I shall be leaving Lincoln at about 05:30 on the morning of the 10th to arrive at Drayton Manor at 07:00 ish for breakfast. Would be nice to ride with anybody else from the Lincoln area or meet up with others en route. The parade will leave Drayton Manor at about 11:00. I am sure this will be a very emotional day for all attending.
