Steeple Morden Run

14 September 2017

Photos and report by David Osborn


The weather during the previous few days looked as if the Steeple Morden Run could be the first washout in its short running history.  An optimistic local weather forecast offered a window of opportunity between 10am and 2pm.  Optimistic enough to attract 15 optimistic riders.  There was variety of machinery on offer, from the very small to rather large, but as always all interest in our activities is always welcome.  Bits and pieces included a Corgi, an Excelsior Consort, a rather nice sounding Excelsior Talisman Twin special (I remember coveting one of those running around the village for too many years ago than I dare to remember).  Also in the line up was a PC50 with footrests mounted on the front wheel spindle!  I suggest you don’t try that one until you consult the originator.  Amongst some of the other machinery was very nice Velocette.  No breakdowns or incidents.  And the weather held up.
