A couple of weeks ago it was Ton Up Day at Jacks Hill Cafe on the A5 just outside Towcester. The event is always well attended and this year the sun shone too, which is always a bonus.

A couple of Sundays ago (23rd August), the town of Brackley in Northamptonshire, held its first Festival Of Motorcycling.
The organisers said sunny weather was booked and so it turned out. We enjoyed a very pleasant bimble along the twisty roads to Banbury and beyond, and arrived at Brackley early afternoon – the event being scheduled [...]
