On Saturday I visited the Classic Motorcycle Mechanics Show at Stafford. This is the biggest classic bike show in the country with lots of bikes on show and for sale. The emphasis is Japanese bikes of the 60s/70s/80s. The weather was sunny so the outdoor exhibits could also be enjoyed. A big thanks to Malcolm who did the driving - a 660 mile round trip from Dundee for him.
