Brooklands Ton – Up Day 03/07/2016

Pat and I arrived at Denham and met up with Bob Norman and Sam. We had a very leisurely ride up the M25 till junction11 and then onwards to Brooklands.

We always enjoy this event as there is always so much going on plus so many exhibits to see in various outbuildings and hangers. So you never get tired of seeing them each year. Our first stop on arrival is obviously to the restaurant for a cuppa! After a quick stop we started walking around the museum.

We had arrived quite early as usual to avoid the crowds and soon we noticed that the whole place was buzzing with people and bikes. We bumped into old Bob and his son who had arrived by car this year. His son was very impressed and at the same time surprised by the atmosphere of  day’s events. The museum carries so many vintage cars and motorcycles as well as other mods of transport such as buses and aircrafts.

We also met Emu who had entered his bike for the Hill Climb but unfortunately his bike had broken down. Apparently he had spent best part of the day repairing his bike. In the afternoon Pat fancied an ice cream, as everyone from the Busy Bee Club knows very well of her fondness for the 99. After queuing up for thirty minutes in very hot sun and costing £2.00 for a thumb size ice cream which she demolished in less then a minute. She even got time to moan over the whole experience.

All in all it was another lovely day and the ride home was also very pleasant.
