Dozens of motorbikes turned out for the Isle of Wight's annual classic bike show on Sunday, April 14.
This year, the event was held at the Island Riding Centre, on the outskirts of Newport.
Organised by the Isle of Wight section of the Vintage and Classic Motorcycle Club (VMCC), the show attracts big numbers and this year was no exception.
A total of 69 machines were displayed for judging in the main arena and there were even more bikes outside.
By mid-morning, organisers say the car park was so full that bikes were queuing to get in.
Judging for the show was undertaken by long-term VMCC members, Reg Glading and Keith Hadfield.
There were three main categories: pre 1931, 1931 to 1960, and 1961 to 1997, with further prizes for Best in Show and Clubman of the Year.
Organisers said: "Judging was made particularly difficult by the sheer range and diversity of bikes on display from a group of flat tankers to specials and race machines, not to mention the quality of the restorations.
"Ironically, a stroll around the car park revealed a number of equally fascinating machines in original condition from an Ariel 350cc Red Hunter to a gorgeous Dunstall Norton sitting unobtrusively in the corner.
"It came as no surprise to hear that some onlookers thought the classic bike show was in the car park before being pointed in the direction of the arena."
In the end, the winner of both Best in Show and the best pre 1931 bike was Kev Crome and his 1922 Raleigh 350cc Model No 1.
Kev also won awards in other categories, which included a BSA Gold Star 350, a Triumph Trident, a Greeves and a Suzuki 350.
The day was labelled a huge success, with money raised for two Island charities: Wight Sight and the Isle of Wight Prostate Cancer Support Group.
Judging by the impressive turnout the annual pilgrimage remains as popular as ever.
