Well we managed to have a fat fire in the BBQ, but other than that it was a great day. The blister on my hand from the hot oil should be healed in a day or three.
Caught up with Dave 500 & RetroRocket Mick for a chat as well. Good to meet up occasionally fellas.  ;)
Great range of Jap stuff there, but of course the 750's ruled the day.
Here's a pic of the winner & a link to a slide show of some of the others on display.
Some of these bikes were under a red shade sail, that's why the funny hue.
