Just wondering if anyone knows when the meet at Mc Donald's Hayle starts? I know it's not an official meet but when does it usually start up

I've decided to treat my Tiger XC to a rear pipe, I've narrowed it down to two possible that match what I want. It's either a S P Engineering oval polished stainless pipe or an MTC oval stainless pipe. I like the fact the S P Engineering pipe is unbadged unlike the similar MTC or Fuel pipe. The MTC ...

Hi all, anyone know the date of the Martin Jennings run this year?

After hearing about the Chequered Flag Café, I thought I'd have a ride out, good roads also a nice café. No bias here just a review

Well done!
