Welcome to my photos of the May Day Run 2009

These photos were taken at the 2009 May Day Run, all at the Hastings end of the run (One day I must try going to the Locksbottom end!). Its a great event held on May Day every year, thousands of bikers come down to Hastings. Some people don't like the event, too noisy etc. but I love it! Bikers get a lot of bad press, which I think is sad as they are mostly very nice people (ALL groups of people have their good and bad). The atmosphere is great, even when the weather is bad (was not too bad this year, its been much worse!) and its a great day out.

This is my Daughter Joanne posing on one of the SLUT (South Londons Uncommitted Trikers) trikes, amazing trikes, but a little scary!

A very fast looking Honda CBR on one of the many displays, there are stands selling bikes, helmets, bike modifications and much more.

There is always a big selction of bikes and trikes, from modern racing bikes to classic ones like this old WW2 looking one.

A close up of the front of a Suzuki motorbike parked on the seafront at Hastings. Why do cars normally come as just blue, just red etc. when motorbikes are available in great colour combinations?

A few bikes heading along the seafront! Most of the town was almost at a standstill, it was not just the bikes, we always get loads of extra cars on bank holidays too.

I great looking bright red Yamaha Trike in the main carpark, I would love to have something like that, maybe one day.

A Honda motorbike with a sidecar, seems a bit unfair, the passenger sits in the warm, has a stereo etc. while the rider is out in the cold.

A picture of one or two bikes on Hastings seafront! and the pier in the background, there are always thousands of bikes every year.
