Thank you both. I must say I've never considered myself as a street photographer. I guess the difference with an event like this is that those dressing up must almost expect to have a camera focussed on them whereas in a normal street scene some might find it intrusive. I'm not really sure why some of the Whitby Goths from a year or two back got so uptight about it, If they don't like it, don't do it in public!

Thanks for further comments and lead.20. Anyone able to identify this?

It seems much the same as this (1941) Royal Enfield WCO 350 ccm

Great images John. Shame I missed you. There weren't many Petaxians around - probably just you and I.
Seems like it, I didn't spot any others around either. I only went to Pickering around lunchtime as the rain put me off earlier on and Pickering is only around a 30 minute drive away for me so I didn't need to rush. I was expecting to find the place deserted after all the rain; certainly wasn't the case though! The afternoon was quite pleasant and I found plenty to photograph.Great images John.

I get the impression you had a train ride?

A good and varied set with plenty of event scenes and coverage.
The M/C is indeed a WCO 350.
I couldn't make it this year but glad to see the images above.
Best regards

Too far from a shore.

I got to Pickering quite early - I think it was before 9. Probably will get a speeding ticket in the post in a day or two as well. I then took the train to Levisham and was planning to keep on going but the weather was atrocious so came back to Pickering. Then took the car to Goathland for a little while and then on to Grosmont but didn't stay stop there and came back in mid afternoon.

Oh dear, did you wizz past a scamera van? I haven't been on the NYMR for quite a while. One thinks twice about paying out £30 for a trip. Maybe would if it was a tenner though. I know it must cost them quite a lot to run but 1 x £10 gives them more than 0 x £30.

Yes - b******* . Ticket came in the post today.Oh dear, did you wizz past a scamera van? I haven't been on the NYMR for quite a while. One thinks twice about paying out £30 for a trip.

About the train ticket - yes I agree. £26 is rather steep. I was planning to use the car but there was no parking at Levisham so decided to take the train all the was up to Grosmont.
