Thumbs up 59 Bonneville

Thank you GPZ for putting my photos on the site. These bikes will be at the Dayboro Rally. The Azure Blue was a basket case and we don't know what it started out as, but today it stands as is.

Just to make sure all you Guys & Gals out there don't think you have missed the 'Bonneville Celebration'........ it is on 21st - 23rd AUGUST 2009. The venue is the Heritage Motor Centre, Gaydon, Warwickshire, ENGLAND.

Needed to get that in because it looks like the Aussies have hi-jaked this thread posting pictures and saying how good it WAS?

THE REAL ONE IS STILL TO COME AND TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE AT DISCOUNT RATES UNTIL THE END OF JULY. www.bonnevillecelebration.org

Thank you......... Roy.

THE REAL ONE? Do you mean to say that I imagined our rally in Australia - "must be fun getting old then".

I'm assuming the "Official celebration" would be the more correct term; it is being held essentially at the home of the Bonneville's origin 50 years ago, in England.

There have been several "Anniversary celebrations" here in the 'States, with more to come; everyone is cashing in on the history.

Jewel, it arrived today............. THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I have certainly not imagined that and I can say also I did not imagine the contribution you Aussies have made, all be it 12,000 miles away.

My previous post, as you know, was tongue in cheek. However I still need to advertise our event and encourage people to come along and have a good time.

Roy.
