Snaith Bike show Sunday September 15th 2024

Snaith (South Yorkshire) is once again closing its road through the village to facilitate its yearly bike meet / show its well attended and organised with a range of classic and modern bikes.
Forecast for the week end seems favourable if you go look out for a blue RE5.
