Italian Night in Port Erin tonight, so we braved the gale force winds to have a look. Lots of modern Ducatis, but some oldies & interesting bikes as well. The first three are all Manx registered, but we've not seen them before, so I guess this is their first outing of 2017 & they'll get another in August for the Classic TT  upload images  photo gallery online free temporary image hostingThis one looked like the owner enjoyed riding it though  The event was at a new venue this year, at a golf club above Port Erin beach, so the back drop was as good as the bikes  html picture uploadGot some more, but the image uploader has ground to a halt, so I'll try again later. |

Taken me nearly an hour to get this one on!   pic siteNow for the cafe racers, old & new...  No idea what these are, but they looked good  images httpsWell the 2nd one didn't load & I've run out of patience. I'll try again tomorrow, might go back to Photobucket, although that could be even more frustrating! |

Sold my Jota four years ago now,I don't miss it as it wasn't a pleasant bike to ride.Always liked Guzzis and strangely fancy an early seventies Ducati single.

Ian you didn't take a picture of the breakdown truck! No need for a breakdown truck, several came in vans so plenty of transport available |
