If you don't know who Mike Karslake is (why!?) he played a huge part in laying the foundations of the modern Lambretta scene that we are currently enjoying. From designing the BLOA badge (this is not up for argument or court cases...) via initiating long distance touring, sand racing on the Isle of Man to building the 1st UK Lambretta museum (with help from the LCGB) in Northlew Devon.
With this being the third anniversary of his sad passing, this may well be a one off event so get yourselves there & show your respect...
Based at the Minehead rugby club, we had thought about making this a C2C type event {next time ( : } but decided that riding without luggage was way more fun & that the organisers deserved to enjoy the event also (no relocating the PA etc etc).
Saturday will provide 140ish miles of twisty, some technical some fast, Somerset & Devon tarmac goodness. Mid point, in a 3 point signing in event, will be the Green Dragon Inn in Northlew. Dan, the new landlord, is putting on a BBQ specially for us so please support him (directions to Mike's grave will be signposted).
Saturdays entertainment will take the form of a bunch of blokes playing overpriced slabs of plastic & the Skimmity Hitchers playing live, putting the c*nt back into the west country inna scrumpy & westons folk & ale style
