Remembrance Day Scooter Run 2020


Several years ago I attended the first Remembrance Day scooter run. The organizing club had expected maybe fifty or sixty people would attend, however, more than a hundred people came. It was a great event and so the South Side Scooter Club has run the event ever since.

Not an 'early Lambretta' but my East German IWL Troll. It always causes some confusion.

A very good turn out as always, with a wide variety of machines and styles on display.

Clancy's Fish Pub is both the start and end

A fine Fremantle morning

After the run, Richard (Durkopp) and I stopped for coffee at the usual Freo hangout - B-Shed Cafe

Not a scooter - Ron's BSA Lightning Clubman
