Hundreds of vintage motorbikes to join ride out
Peter WilemanAbout 300 vintage motorcycles are set to take part in an annual ride out, which is celebrating is 75th year.
The Vintage Motor Cycle Club Banbury Run will be hosted at the British Motor Museum in Gaydon, Warwickshire, on Sunday 8 June.
During the course of the day, the motorcyclists will be riding up Sun Rising Hill, near Tysoe, which was once used to test out newly manufactured vehicles.
The run began in 1949 and Tom Caren, show manager at the British Motor Museum, said its longevity demonstrated just how "immensely popular" it was.
He said the hundreds of vintage motorcycles in action promised a "motoring spectacle".
The museum will be open from 9:00 until 17:00 BST, with the first bikes departing at 10:00.
