Bikes by the Bay - Melbourne Australia

[Aussieflyer]

Summer is winding down so all you need is a sniff of good weather and half of an excuse to get out on the bike. Today is the annual 'Bikes by the Bay' show in Melbourne's bayside suburb Williamstown. The local club run a magnificent event attracting 100's of bikes and 1000's of people. My usual riding buddies Wayne and Mick joined me for a day out. Here's a small selection of photos of bikes that caught my eye ...

Wayne's beautiful CB750 at my place. 100% original including the paint!!

The ultimate restoration ... a GT750 Water Bottle ... perfection.

Ian's rigid ... suicide shift and auto clutch ... a real handful to ride
