Saw them a few times when I was a kid & again just a couple of years ago & they were still using Triumph Bonnevilles, running on just the exhaust downpipes -no silencers. Worth seeing just for the sound of massed British twins Smiley

disbanding as they have moved on and are now using cutting edge technology in cyber warfare  Roll Eyes
