SCMC Spring gathering at the Muckhart Inn 22/04/18

A wee motorcycle jaunt today to the SCMC get together in Muckhart, we were 2 up on Lesley's Triumph Street Triple as the Big Yam was dropped of at the engine tuners in Bonnyrigg yesterday, Lesley losing the coin toss again which meant I was up front. The Street Triple more than capable of hauling us about, such an amazing engine, so much torque and engine braking.
The weather forecast wasn't good for the afternoon but it was only showers thankfully and judging by the amount of like minded folks, the weather didn't matter anyway.
Its always great to meet up with friends old an new and also blethering to folks for the first time, everyone seemed to be on good form, just happy to be out on their bikes.
Lots of great bikes ranging from old Brits and Yanks, classic British, Italian and Japanese to more modern bikes. Thanks to the SCMC for organising the day, hopefully we will all meet up again next Sunday at Eric's Wee Smokie get together in Arbroath.
We ended up at the Heaven Scent café in Milnathort for the second time this weekend, good food and not expensive.

Our transport for the weekend

Braw looking Tribsa, shinier than a shiny Tribsa


No carb trumpets as they fell off along the way according to the owner, he retrieved only one

Says it all

Looked fun, probably a bit mental on the road

Fraser's braw BSA 650 Lightning, sounds great too

Not many Nortons unfortunately





LC's seem to be making a resurgence



Tidy Z1000


Bsa looking well used, has a presence 

Marion and Alan's Enfield Meteor Minor and Bsa A65

Tidy RD 400

A good few 2 strokes turned up, a great sound but no smell of Castrol R unfortunately

A good turnout
