The summer is packed with motorcycle events. They are getting more and more slick. We are organising an alternative to this with our good pals from Sideburn Magazine. It will be a small event, in potentially freezing weather, with camping and it’s happening on the top of the Pennines. Even more remarkable is that fact that people want to come. 80% of places have gone so get over to sideburn.bigcartel.com if you want to be there.

There will be some proper entertainment like eating, drinking, bingo and slide shows. It’s bikes only with no exceptions, so no cars or cosy camper vans. We have heard that one woman is bringing her dog with her in a sidecar, which should at least add a bit of warmth. Barry pictured below, will also be along. He usually gets things warmed up.
