Mayday in Hastings.

"NEWS FROM ACROSS THE POND"

Kevin and some other Boozefighter supporters filed this MAY DAY report as requested. It seems that May 1st is a big deal type holiday in Great Britton and through out Europe. Sort'a like our Labor Day in the States. And to celebrate in England there is always a major biker rally in the town of Hastings. Thanks to Kevin for sharing your exciting event with us...JQ

Hasting's the home of the great battle in 1066 where our King Harold got shot in the eye with an arrow and the only time the French beat us.

Every bank holiday Easter Monday Hastings is a magnet for thousands of bikers, no one knows why it's just one of those things that just grew.

As we live in Hastings it means if we want to join in in this great spectacle we have to ride out of town. But once again our Great British weather has let us down on a bank holiday, we awake to find the rain lashing down. So we the wife and I decide to take a leisurely stroll down to the pub, the great majority of bikes are plastic fantastic crutch rockets but hidden in there midst are some jems. And the guys in the photo well, Les ,me, Mick, the wife [Lindsey],. Mark and Ralph. Limey Kev.
