Stormin 4,458 #1 Posted April 30, 2017 The rally went well and the weather stayed fine, but a little breezy. Breezy being an understatement. I now have a wind burnt mush. Up early Saturday morning and arrived at the site at 6-30am. Trailer loaded with the C-81, C-121 and stuff for the auction. I was going to take the Teagle Hedge Trimmer but couldn't fit it on the trailer. Saturday was spent unloading auction things as people brought them in and eating bacon rolls. Had a couple of pints in the bar then in bed by 10pm. Bed being a padded bench in the club mobile office. Sunday up a 5am and off to unlock gates and take up my post at the exhibitors gate for 6am. The cars and motorcycles entered by another gate further on. Locked the gate at 10am as that was the time the show started. Had a quick look at auction stuff that had arrived that morning, but nothing really caught my eye. For the first time for a while, I managed to have a good look round. So some photo's. We had 11 entries in the horticultural class. Some you may recognize. 6 Triumph66, S1g, nigel and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S1g 579 #5 Posted April 30, 2017 Some great photos Norman, did you get the serial number of the Gem ? as its one of the short gearbox models, the number will be under G501 but from the rear shaft And rotor selector it's after my G206 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #6 Posted April 30, 2017 Look like a good show with some nice garden tractors. I particularly like the two Gutbrods in the line up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
