After a remarkably dry (for Scotland) easter Friday and Saturday, the gods saw fit to keep the rain away for the Egg Run.
A 30 minute sojourn through Glasgow, holding up all the traffic, loadsa folk watching and waving, taxi drivers scowling, bus drivers readin' the paper. It was an excellent turnout.
Someone
forgot to put his clock and brain forward (not me ;-), we made it to Blythswood
Square with minutes to spare so we were at the back so no photies of the
run.
MAG Scotland will no doubt have been much more organised and have photies
on thier site
The unofficial count is as follows
bikes - "hunners"
people - "hunners"
eggs for the weans - "Thoosands""
On Saturday night (don't know about Friday coz I can't remember much, me and Jack D got a bit friendly), the warm up band was Wildcats of Kilkenny, Double Bass, Fiddle, Piano & Drums, at bike rally, well the lad could sure play a fiddle and any band that can get hunner's o' bikers jiggin' to a Carpenters song deserves a prize. Plane Crazy didn't do much for me, I saw Sabbath in '78 at the Glasgow Apollo, I think I'lljust cherish that memory.
Plenty of good examples at the custom show, dunno who won yet but I loved the diddy we 125 & v-Twin chops, the workmanship and proportions were superb, they got my vote.
