Bristol Italian AutoMoto Festival April 24th

Post by layne »

For those that might be interested and have an Italian bike (Colin, Redlight, Rik, and Mr Smiler etc) this year’s event is on Saturday 24th April.

It’s a bit like Paignton bike night where you display you own bike but for Italian motobilia including Ferrari’s and Lambo’s.

Aprilia is the featured bike manufacture this year.

I’m planning to go up with a couple of friends with MV’s and probably SP as Dave and Kie are interested. Others can go but I believe you have to park outside of Corn Street (especially R1’s).
:wink:

ClubAprilia are having a pitch in the main part of the street & organising a ride in from the outskirts of Bristol.

Layne i'm guessing you were'nt going to go straight up the motorway

Hadn’t thought that far ahead (Head still herts from last night anyway).

Most people/groups seem to gather at Gordano's then ride in. Poss could have an earlier start and go the long way up. Or vice-versa and go a long way back?
