I thought about joining one but don't think I'll have time to pack up from a rally, change into a suit and grow a moustache.

The Leeds run was fun this morning. 99 Motorbikes and 1 Lambretta... I rode my Li with some smokey old Velocettes. Everyone very friendly and it raised some cash. All good. :D

thanks Chaps. I've not seen any footage posted yet but there should be some as enough people were filming. I wasn't the only scooterist there, just the only one on 10" wheels - a few of the bikers had a chat about lambrettas, and dragsters they'd prevously owned and a few also were current yorkshire scooter club members, just on their bikes, so it was deffo not a mods 'n' rockers type affair!
