Annual festival of bikes, cars, trucks and... steam!
I was only able to spend a couple of hours there on Saturday this year so missed Sunday's big parade of an estimated 300 Nortons but did see lots of bikes, some of the magnificent trucks and a couple of 'steam at work' displays. I should have shot more as the light was perfect but took quite a lot of video instead (I need the practice).
Saw Mill (this thing always gives me the willies as it would most certainly not take prisoners)

Thresher and Baler - make hay while the sun shines!

Lots of beautifully restored trucks. If only I had a garage big enough.

And of the hundreds of Nortons on display this Norvil Commando 750 is easily the one I'd liked to have taken home with me.
