[@paulbutterworthbillericay]

Thanks they were great, wernt they

Thanks Paul great video of what was clearly a great show which had the bonus of being able to listen to a good band. I can't say that I saw a bike that I wouldn't want to own. The Vincent was immaculate but I also loved the Indian Chief.

[@paulbutterworthbillericay]

Thankyou very much, Yep I liked the Indian Motorcycle, what I couldn't capture was the smoke off the old exhaust as it pulled up, there's something special about old mechanics, talking to another fella as the Speedway started up, we both agreed Electric Cars are Kack, the band again full on old skool, I particularly like these smaller events, to think they happen right accross this great land

Thanks Paul, the bikes take me back to happier times in the 50s/60s also great commentary and camera work

[@paulbutterworthbillericay]

Your so kind thankyou, I get the impression that the post war decades & even the 40s were better in many ways, I personally love these smaller events & getting to talk with owners who love thier bikes so much

The last generation who know how anything works!

[@paulbutterworthbillericay]

Your Absolutely Correct, we are witnessing living engineers, if you like Fred dibnahs of the biking world.

[@michaelfraser5723]

private ('public') schools still do engineering and auto classes

[@paulbutterworthbillericay]

@michaelfraser5723 I'm glad the youth of today still want to work in Engineering, & hopefully some will get an old bike to work on

[@sergechelton4818]

apart from a mobile phone....which is also great.

[@michaelfraser5723]

WE ARE LIKE NATIVE AMERICANS ON RESERVATIONS THESE DAYS, WITH ALL THE NEW PEOPLE AND ALL ENFORCED CHANGES. THIS KIND OF EVENT IS ALL WE HAVE. LEST WE FORGET ?

[@paulbutterworthbillericay]

I would say we are living in a world of great change, & how we live now will be studied by future generations.

[@bruceanderson8720]

Enjoyed the good times

[@paulbutterworthbillericay]

Absolutely, think it's easy to not realise what we have on our doorstep
