I'm just one of the many spectators, but get there before the start and wander round the paddock. Dslam and I have a couple of mates who've entered their pre 1915 bikes, so we have a natter etc, and then watch the first of the many set off before following the route.

I couldn't go (bad cold and Babysitting) but I was thinking of them. Hope it didn't rain during the event as I have seen before, how hard it is for the competitors even without bad weather to contend with as well. Hope you have some photos for us. JJ :) Title: Re: Pioneer Run, 18 March 2012: Pre 1915 Motorcycles from Epsom to Brighton Post by: Tony oily bike on March 20, 2012, 01:17:00 PM How did it goTony?
