Took a run up to Popham Airfield last Sunday, not the best of days weather wise, showers forcast and very wet under foot. Still a good turnout of classics and a large auto jumble, the car park was the fullest I've ever seen for this event. Here are a few of the entrants that caught my eye.

Burney 679cc sv V-twin not many of these were produced, and very few exist today.

You see a lot of J.A.P & Matchless powered Morgans at the Bike events but not so many Anzani water cooled machines like the one below.

Bond did one that had a friggin kickstart, you had to flip the bonnet, lift your leg over the wing and kick it....
It also had 180 degree steering (front wheel drive) which beat the old reverse law for bikers
