Default Sportster Sickness UK out in numbers

So a year ago we were invited to the Dealership in Nottingham.
We got 120 Sportsters together and we thought 'Wow'

On Saturday, 1 year later we did it again.
503 Sportsters all riding together...It sounded amazing and looked even better

That is just sick. Amazing numbers...difficult to just get that many riders together but that many sportsters is even more challenging. Thanks for sharing.

Looks like a lot of fun! I'm always impressed how you Europeans take riding gear so much more seriously than many folks in the US too.

Our roads are so busy now we are literally in the firing line as soon as we put our helmets on.
So anything that will help me when you hear
"sorry mate I didn't see you" is worn
