Your guide to events in Nelson, New Zealand
Saturday 7th–Sunday 8th January 2012
Each year the Nelson Classic & Vintage Motorcycle Club puts on a display in the Stoke Memorial Hall of qualifying motorcycles all owned by current members. Club rules restrict the machines to over 25 years old, from all continents and all the famous manufacturers.
Come in and view some of the legendary machines from the British makers such as Norton, Triumph, BSA, AJS & Matchless, Velocette and others. From Europe there will be Ducati, BMW, and Motoguzzi, to name but a few. From America the Indians and Harley-Davidsons of yesteryear. And from Japan a new breed of modern classics, Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki.
Wander around the hall and see how technology changed the motorcycle. Take a seat, rest your legs, and watch road racing from the Isle of Man TT. And other circuits from around the world.
This event is becoming a regular feature of the Nelson holiday calendar, many people fitting it into their annual holiday.
On Sunday 8th from 9 am to 12 noon there will be a swap-meet at the site. Anyone who wishes to sell motorcycle related material from bikes, clothing, books, parts, etc - the swap sites are free. (No household goods please.)
All are welcome
