I went along but it wasn't quite what I was expecting. There were some very nice classic bikes there but I did expect to see more of them, plus there weren't any stalls. I wasn't there long before I left to go over to Beaulieu for the Hot Rod show.

Fortunately, Sammy's is only up the road from where I live and it was free to attend the event, so no great loss. Sorry there aren't any photos but I wasn't that well organised.

Sammy was riding in the VMCC Banbury Run on Sunday 21st on a lovely road-going Grindley Peerless from 1925.

Here's a picture from Banbury of the radial engined Verdel from the Sammy Miller Museum, and that's Sammy's head on the left (getting into his riding gear).
