Poole Dream Machines returns full throttle with a new sponsor
3rd April 2018
Poole Dream Machines, sponsored by Dutton Gregory Solicitors is returning for a full season of fabulous Tuesday nights from 3 April.
From 6pm every Tuesday evening from April – end September, the Quay is closed to all traffic except motorbikes with riders paying a £1 fee to park up with other enthusiasts for an irresistible evening of serious bike devotion. From cool classics to the latest sportsters, all types of models can be seen lining up against the backdrop of Poole Harbour.
Bigger and better than ever, the friendly dedicated motorcycle ride-out to Poole Quay has been the South Coast’s go-to destination for over 30 years with over 1000 riders attending the meets each week. From the faithful regulars to those travelling long distances from across the South, Dream Machines marks the start of the summer. And with a great selection of waterside cafes, bars, restaurants and food kiosks to enjoy during the event, it is the perfect place to relax, have a bite to eat and enjoy the spectacular display.
Regular attendees can purchase a 2018 armband for £8 in advance from the Tourist Information Centre based in Poole Museum, just off Poole Quay or the Lord Nelson, Fish & Chip Kiosk & Quayside Emporium on the Quay.
The self funding event includes a weekly Bike of the Night competition where different judges pick out their personal favourite. The first night will be judged by Dutton Gregory, with the winning owner receiving a race kit courtesy of Muc-off. All weekly winners will also get invited back to take part in the Bike of the Year finale on Tuesday 25 September.
As sponsor of Poole Goes Vintage for the last 3 years, Dutton Gregory has been an integral part of Poole’s Wave 105 Summertime in the South events programme.
Andrew Tilley, Managing Partner at Dutton Gregory, said; “Our team are massive motorcycle enthusiasts, so it is fantastic that this year we are able to support the biggest regular event in Poole’s summer events calendar. Not only is it highly valued by the riders, it brings essential trade and a terrific atmosphere to the Quay for spectators. Our thanks go to everyone involved and we are really looking forward to being involved in such a well supported event.”
Dream Machines kicks off Poole’s Wave 105 Summertime in the South, which sees free events taking place in the town from April to November.
