It was originally organized by the late Andy Cochrane, a well-known biker in the village, who unfortunately left this world way too early a few years ago.

There's No Place Like Chrome
When settling down to write a feature for a magazine, it’s necessary to have two things, nay, three things in front of you. A computer is useful, it saves all that messy ink and blotting paper that we used in those long gone school days, a strong hot mug of tea should also be on the desk (goes without saying), and finally, a set of scribbled notes that a couple of months ago resembled a detailed description of a motorcycle, but that by now, are largely illegible…
Spike And Bob's Big Swedish Adventure: Part 5
In 1979 Hasse took Caprice to the Norrtälje show for the first time, but he had changes for the bike in mind and, during the winter, he picked up a jammer frame and a set of 20-inch tubes.
JBS SPECIAL
Jarno comes from a family with petrol in their blood. His father races classic motorcycles and Jarno was raised on a farm where the barns are full of motorcycles instead of cows! This is his very first project, the Jarno Bastian Special
CUSTOMBIKE Messe Bad Salzuflen, Germany
Sometimes what is missing from a show is more interesting than what’s present. With the German show Custombike celebrating its fifteenth anniversary, the event remains a showcase for European customising in all its diversity— with the additional benefit of a focus on parts that are homologated and approved for Europe
KENZO
Over the last few years Death Machines of London has produced a number of pioneering builds, some of which you will have seen in these pages, not least the Air Force One Moto Guzzi from the cover of 100% Biker #231.

And that’s just what they’ve done again…

It was that time of year when the Slaughter House Customs team heads to the Malle Mile. For the fourth year running we raced, drank and recovered from our hangovers…
TWIN PEAKS
In common with other major, forward-thinking manufacturers, Royal Enfield has embraced the new generation of custom motorcycle building, enlisting up-and-coming as well as established names across the world to make their own mark on a modern Enfield model. But the latest collaboration brings together two firms that, although no longer in British ownership, will for many people remain quintessentially British
NICKEL ‘N' BRASS
Over the years I have been constantly impressed and often amazed at the variety of people that custom motorcycles attract. Perhaps this shouldn’t be as surprising to me as it is, because I fully believe that building a custom bike is one of the broadest forms of art that there is
Five Years On
We don’t feature too many Jawas in this magazine, yet the little Czech bikes have a lot of customising potential, something which Paul Kuijs from Holland has proved with this motorcycle
Green With Envy
Regular readers of this magazine will know that the lads at Bristol Bobbers do like a Yamaha DragStar. After all, as they say, what’s not to like? In their words, “they make perfect reliable, cost-effective cool bobber conversions.”
