Yamaha LC two strokes in triplicate. Somewhat out of comfortable range for an evening ride perhaps but Linn and I were in the area on the 19th August so we went along.
Caistor bike night is part of a series of meetings that go under the banner of Lincolnshire Bike Nights..They occur every few weeks during the course of spring summer and early autumn when we can rely on better weather !
The meetings are located all over the county with separate sports and cruiser events taking place in different places on the same evenings. A few meetings like this are joint sports bike and cruiser meetings held when space allows it. Most of the meetings occur in the north of this rather large county but a few are bit closer to us than this.
The range of bikes on display was good but perhaps a little light on the older classic with no vintage bikes at all. This meeting was advertised as a mixed sports and cruiser night which indeed it was.
A band was present in the little square that is the centre of Caistor with plenty of burgers available whilst beer and other refreshments were available from the pub/cafe bar "The Settlement" around which the event was staged.
The weather had been pretty good but a sprinkling of light rain for just a few seconds started a bit of an exodus out of proportion to its effect. Perhaps the increasing gloom and the fact they came from far and wide accounted for that.
still it was a pleasant diversion from the daily grind and we enjoyed it.
