Classic Bike (UK)

Llan Bike Fest

-

NOW IN ITS sixth year, the Llan Bike Fest just gets bigger and better. This year, popular TV star and classic bike nut Henry Cole is the guest of honour and will be around all weekend. See him on stage with Steve Plater or just catch him for a natter around the festival site – he’s always up for it.

Joining Henry and Steve for the onstage interviews is inveterate specials builder Allen Millyard. Allen’s creations are well known and range from his incredibly neat, lightweigh­t SS180 V-twin Honda – a fusion of two C90 engines in an SS50 rolling chassis – to his awesome, ‘Flying Millyard’ V-twin. The big beast’s five-litre power plant is based on two cylinders taken from a 1930s Pratt & Whitney radial nine-cylinder aero engine. And you’ll be able to check out a selection of his amazing creations at the festival.

But there’s much more to the event than the stars on the stage. Some of the real stars of the event are the hundreds of bikes – from customs, through classics to historic race machines. And, helping Steve Plater with his popular commentary on the historic bikes paraded in the arena will be TT legend Charlie Williams.

Tons of traders and importers will be showing off their latest wares, there’ll be a host of club displays and the unique Llanbikefe­st party feel to the event, with live music, excellent catering and stunt shows keeping the atmosphere lively all weekend.
