Thanks
Cheers. There will be more, when I get the chance.

I was hoping a few more people might take part in this one. A couple of guys contributed to the old thread but after the forum upgrade, all their images disappeared.

It's pretty easy to find old images of towns and villages in your area, using Google Images.

Great to see.

Corfe Castle I think, down the road from me

Good pics, interesting to see so many of the 'then and now' haven't changed that much

Yep Trev, it is Corfe Castle. Just down the road from me.

From your profile picture avatar thingy, Im guessing you own an old GSXR and have been known to pop along to Poole Bike Night.
I took this photo at Poole bike night on 16th June 2009 (8 years ago!). Could it be yours?

Another nice pic, sadly mines not as pristine at that but (IMO) the Slingshot looks better

I'm actually off to Poole Quay tonight, the first time in two years, although I only live 20 miles away it gets a bit samey and the ride there isn't great so don't tend to get down that often. Hopefully tonight, with the sun shining, there will be some great bikes to ogle.

I cheated with the next two photos. I didn't manage to get my bike in the picture (for obvious reasons!).
