Beatson Bikers 2026

This event was held on Sunday in aid of The Beatson Cancer Charity. Over 1000 motorcycles attended, starting with a look round and breakfast at the Moulsdale Motor Museum then taking a 90 minute ride to the Beatson Cancer Centre in Glasgow.

The route was badly affected by the vast number of bikes getting through a couple of villages and junctions, and by roadworks hold ups, but still a great day and money raised is over £40,000… so far.

Some neat displays in the museum

Sorry if it’s a bit off topic, the first picture made me think about.

one of my good friend (Wim met him) has lots of bikes, he bought a cheap XT600 in a bad shape (kind of barn find), and as he disassembled the bike he found more and more sand.

He did some research to find the original owner, and guess what, that bike ran a Paris Dakar :slightly_smiling_face:
