Late last month we had a visit from the Discovery Channel who are making a Documentary on the Cafe Racer Phenomenon which is now a growing scene Worldwide.

Mike Seate of US magazine Cafe Racer brought Director Ed and Scott from the Discovery Channel along with Blake motorcycle racer and reviewer, the team spent the whole day here and we were also joined by Marco and Roberto of Moto Special magazine of Italy, who were working on a feature of LL to be published later this month.

We were also joined by an intrepid group of riders on the vintage machines who made it despite the rain, in no special order thanks go out to: Shaun & Sue, Dave Carroll, John, Stuart, John, Boleslaw, Cres, Yasmin and Gavin!
