Poole Dream Machines Bike of the Night Winner 29th May

30th May 2018

A cloudy and overcast evening with the forecast of rain saw 180 motorcycles gather for the weekly Poole Dream Machines motorcycle event on Poole Quay

The popular weekly event, sponsored by Dutton Gregory Solicitors, is organised and managed by the Poole & Bournemouth Tourism office, and part of the Wave 105 Summertime in the South events programme.

The event sees the largest weekly motorcycle meet in the South, taking place every Tuesday evening from 6pm, April – September. From the latest superbikes and custom builds to vintage classics and trikes, the Quay and Harbour offer the perfect location to show off a superb range of motorbikes where bikers and spectators enjoy a unique relaxed atmosphere.   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 and have a bite to eat.

Congratulations to James Hodge, a local Poole resident, who won the weekly ‘Bike of the Night’ title with his Triumph motorcycle. John stated that the machine was a complete original and that he had owned similar when he was on 16 years old. He rode home with the special prize of bike cleaning kit courtesy of Muc-Off Ltd.

  

Judge for the evening was Nick Phillips from the Borough of Poole, who awarded the prize “because it was fantastic beast in original condition and didn’t look any of its 53 years of age”.

If you’re an avid biker, don't forget we have a limited stock of season armbands from the Poole Tourist Information Centre within Poole Museum, or available from Quayside Emporium, the Lord Nelson or the Fish and Chip kiosk. Armbands give access to the whole season for just £8.  Alternatively it is £1 per bike on the evening.
