Bike rally

It's fiesta week in our village. Something different every day. Today it's bikes. Loads of vintage bikes lined up, but there's so many folks around that I couldn't get any close up pictures. My favourites were an old Indian with a stick gear change, and a Beemer from around the same era. Took these from our patio.[attachment=2:2h34qucs]8.10.11. 6.jpg[/attachment:2h34qucs][attachment=1:2h34qucs]8.10.11. 3.jpg[/attachment:2h34qucs][attachment=0:2h34qucs]8.10.11. 1.jpg[/attachment:2h34qucs]

The second picture is like bobbing for apples, but in reverse. As they ride under the beam they have to reach up and grab a paper streamer.

Re: Bike rally

Wow, what a sweet collection of old bikes. It is good to see some fine older bikes still on the road and being enjoyed. Thank you so much for posting these pics Alantf.

Re: Bike rally

Today it's running races, & the police call the grua to take this car to the pound. The owner thought that the "No parking" signs applied to everyone else but him.[attachment=0:3fbfcxhw]9.10.11. 2.jpg[/attachment:3fbfcxhw]
