Bikeshed - Tobacco Dock today

#1 PostAuthor: Magnum1 » Sun May 25, 2014 5:58 am

I'm, going up there today on the Drifter. Should be a nice little do, bit trendy maybe, but that's London for ya. Tenner to get in. I can already hear them howling up the 406. High Beech after for a cuppa.

Would love one of those Cafe Racers, but I suspect the price tag would be prohibitive!
Blessed are the Zed Makers

We went on Sunday. It's not too far from me and the weather was fine. I love the docks and Tobacco Dock is a nice cosy venue. Really friendly and relaxed it was good to attend a decent London based venue. I've half agreed to show my Harris Magnum there next year (subject to completion!). Here's a few pictures, including my favourite custom bike from Krazy Horse. No Zeds, but maybe next year.

Love the colour of the Moto Gutless, the light blue one in the background. It's cool and different :D

Thanks for taking the time to take the pictures and post them on here.

We have part of the ROFGO Gulf collection on the site where i work.
They took us all round there last week while they fired up the Howmet TX.
Kind of special but i am still not into cars!

Nice one Iain, you definitely captured the spirit of the show. I reckon a few Zeds there next year will raise the bar.
