Some great shots Nathan.

It reminds me that in a village where I lived a few years back, after 
the Remembrance Day service in the local church, the Silence and The 
Last Post we would head off home. As we left there would be a rumble of 
thunder as the local Chapter of the Hell's Angels and HDC all rolled up 
for a service to commemorate their fallen members. The Vicar ran this 
year after year. They were very nice people, with some very, very nice 
bikes and impeccably marshalled. Of course they were all at least 
fifty-something and were accountants, bankers and traders and their 
bikes were in a much better state than they had ever been!
