GS WEEKEND at BANHAM

Whitsun Bank Holiday, 22nd - 25th May 2009

BRIEF REPORT & PHOTOS

The weekend went off very well with beautiful sunny weather and excellent food - some 80 people attended the Hog Roast which was a superb meal.

Ride-outs were arranged for the off-road group on Saturday and Sunday and were well attended with all models of bikes taking part.

A road ride-out took place on Saturday with 20 or so bikes taking part some 40 miles through meandering country lanes to The Anchor at Walberswick where a snack lunch had been laid on. From here we rode to Dunwich, Thorpeness and stopped at the car park outside Aldeburgh to look at the Scallop Shell scupture on the beach - this commemorates Benjamin Brittain, then on through Aldeburgh to the Farm Cafe at Marlesford for tea. On the way back to Banham we passed Framlingham College where we are holding this Year's National Rally over August Bank Holiday.

Many thanks for Mark Weavers for organising the whole weekend.
