Come again? A bikers weekend at Co-op?

Correct Tris :) Just above Helmsley there's a big country estate called Duncombe Park and every year around this time it plays host to a rather large biker's gathering from thursday onwards and normally attracts an extra 12 to 15 thousand people into the area. :) Should be an entertaining few days :)

It's a lovely serene place to visit and work however the moment the weather becomes decent literally hundreds of enthusiastic motorcyclists congregate in the main square every week often along with many vintage and sports car clubs and the odd tractor road run right in front of the store which is great for trade and the locals get on with them really well too. :)

The bikers tend to stop in Helmsley for a bite to eat before blasting up the road to Stokesley, a favourite of there's in the area. Today it was absolutely packed out with quite a variety of bikes.

Not sure what charities they're supporting but I do know they put on a bus service to Helmsley especially for the event with all the proceeds going to charity, it's the first one i've planned for ( it's the most of someone elses money i've spent on beer! :) ) and I can't wait to get involved, hope the weather does it justice. :)

Might I get try and take a few "outside" pictures if I get a spare moment. :)

Been enjoying celebrating my birthday - my lovely husband has been nice to me ALL day and Cerin even washed up .....

Got some lovely presents including a pink garden trowel, Best of the Chieftains CD, a rose called 'Our Joey' and another promise from Cerin to dig the garden!

Sean - are you replacing your own knees?
