As I often find at events like this, the excellent vintage machines are not matched by a sympatheic background. I suppose the organisers and owners don't display they machines for the benefit of photographers.
Best wishes,

Andrew

I appreciate you sharing. Love those old Indians.

Sometimes I'm serious and sometimes not, but I consider sarcasm an artform. Which is it today?

Indians are quite rare in Britain. Not sure why they never caught on, compared to Harleys. These are in remarkable condition
Best wishes,

At Andy

The real Indian Motorcycle Man Co. went bump in '53 and the name just passed between numpty entrepeneurs until Polaris bought the name a couple of years ago.

Harley were still going and have continued to do so. They weren't really popular in GB until they sorted themselves out in the 80's with improved production standards and the "Evolution" engine. Perfectly timed with the yuppy era when their relatively high price made them a bit of a status symbol.

Just don't ask me anything about photography

The new ones are well worth a look at.
Thanks for sharing these shots Gary, a true classic marque.
C&C welcome.
