Once again Witley MCC had a presence at this major show at Dunsfold Park.
For the third consecutive year, on the Sunday of August Bank Holiday weekend, the
sights and sounds of historic and modern aircraft mingled with those of road and
racing cars and motorcycles. Among the motorcycles were trials machines ridden by
members of the Surrey Youth Trials Club.
Despite a dreadful start to the day with penetrating drizzle and low cloud, the weather cleared up well to give a very pleasant afternoon for all involved. Regrettably for aircraft fans, the Vulcan didn’t show because of a technical fault, but the Typhoon was nearly as loud! Our thanks to all those who supported the Witley showing, and especially to the riders and those who brought along machines for the display and the equipment for the trials arena.
