REOC Wessex meet and WD/RE pictures..

Last night we attended the monthly meeting of the Wessex branch of the REOC. Although it was dull, looked like rain, and was windy, we (Julie and I) got the bike out, but it ran real rough(popping and banging and missfiring with a loud bang and flames out of the exhaust). So we went by car, which was lucky really, because a) it pelted down with rain and b) it was dark and I haven't been out in the dark on it yet! So I need to sort out what's wrong with it, soon!

The pub was very nice, and, when the REOC members had been out for a run (one of the members, John, had his recently restored RE Interceptor at the meeting for the first time), we followed them outside for a look at the bikes, which were 50% RE and 50% others (an Ariel, a nice 650 Kawasaki (classic Japanese), a Honda and a BMW). Met the members and listened in on the meeting, which was brief! Will probably go on my own next time.

The pics show a WD/RE at the museum we visited recently (see last Blog), if you click on the one with the date on you can read the text.
