Today Sunday 9th September 2018 I attended the annual Grampian Motorcycle Convention held at Alford Grampian Transport Museum .
I enjoy these events, always hundreds of bikes on display , some vintage, classic and current models , well organised and catering for the crowds that attend.
The weather was excellent ,I spoke to many bikers all sharing their love for the bike they had on display , many had 2 or 3 that they owned , however as usual the best part for was capturing all the motorcycles in the parking area, driven to the event by enthusiasts and owners with a love for their chosen Suzuki, Yamaha,Kawasaki ,Triumph etc.
I captured 400 bikes at the convention today , I do not have the time to list their details etc , hence please feel free to comment on any individual bike that you recognise , meantime I will slowly though surely add as much information as I can when I find time .

It has been over 3 years since I build something, but between many other occupations I managed to create something new! Finally, and this was actually a fun process. I once bought the original Harley 10269 Lego set, and although I liked it better then many other sets, it was time for some heavy Bricksonwheels customizing.
In practical life that meant changing about everything. I chromed the entire engine (thanks to Erik @chromebricks.nl), and relocated the exhausts. The reason for this was that I wanted to create a softail bagger; something not that common. I adapted the base frame from 10269, but changed it at many point to support two major elements: a very large custom 30” frontwheel, in combination with a lay-frame setup. This means the bike sits on its on frame while parked, lowering the air ride system.
I added the stretched bags, and as icing on the cake added a multiple LED lights, and two Brickstuff filaments to give glow on the engine. It is all supported by two batteries mounted in the fuel tank.
Als a big cheers to Rob @Brickstuff.com for supporting in this project.
Hope there is more in the future!

Dover is preparing to bid farewell to one of its most cherished and devoted public figures this Thursday.
Just prior to the passing of former Mayor Aldo Cicchetti this week, townspeople and local leaders gathered at his family home to pay tribute to him.
On Friday, outside his childhood home on Chrystal Street, family members observed as current Mayor James Dodd unveiled a street sign designating the intersection of Chrystal and Morris streets as “Mayor Cicchetti Place.”
A familiar presence in his hometown, Cicchetti served 26 years in local government and was often seen riding his Harley-Davidson motorcycle to and from Town Hall. He passed away at his home on Monday at the age of 87.
Dover Remembers Aldo Cicchetti
Visitation is set for 4 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday at Tuttle Funeral Home on Route 10 in Randolph. The funeral service will take place at 11 a.m. Thursday at Sacred Heart Parish in Dover, followed by burial at Locust Hill Cemetery.
“Aldo’s leadership was characterized not by specific projects but by his unwavering dedication to the people of Dover,” remarked Dodd during the dedication.
Cicchetti and his family moved from New York to Chrystal Street when he was just six months old. He attended Academy Street School and graduated from Dover High School in 1955.
He spent 32 years running the Dover Corner Market near his home before venturing into politics in 1974, serving on the Board of Alderman (now the town council) for a total of 16 years, including 10 years as mayor from 1983 to 1992.
Dodd, reflecting on his own political journey that began in 1998, noted how different things were back then compared to the present.
“We had the chance to express our disagreements during town meetings,” Dodd recalled. “Afterward, we would head to Guido’s for a meal, where Aldo would always enjoy a Pepsi.”
“We always knew where Aldo stood,” Dodd added, referring to Cicchetti’s distinct look of a Harley-Davidson vest and bolo tie.
“His enthusiasm and skill in uniting people made him a vital part of this community,” Dodd expressed. “Beyond his tangible achievements, it was Aldo’s exceptional character, integrity, and compassion for those he served that distinguished him.”
Cicchetti also contributed 18 years to the Dover Water Commission and worked for 14 years at King’s Supermarket in Mendham before retiring.
A Family Committed to Dover
Dodd mentioned that he personally visited his ailing friend on Thursday to present him with a replica of the green and white street sign.
“I have a close relationship with his family and was aware that he wasn’t well,” Dodd explained. “I wanted to honor him by naming the street after him. He lived there for 87 years, so it was important to do this while he was still with us. I’m grateful I had the chance to present him with the sign and share some time together.”
The Cicchetti legacy reaches far beyond Mayor Cicchetti Place, as Dodd highlighted. Aldo’s son, Aldo Jr., serves as a police officer in Dover, and his daughter, Lisa Newkirk, leads the Dover Recreation Department.
Aldo Sr. is survived by his wife, Anita; sister, Anita (Cicchetti) Hulsman; children Aldo Cicchetti Jr. and partner Sue Friel; Lisa (Cicchetti) Newkirk; Christopher and wife Tammy Cicchetti; and Julie Cicchetti. He also leaves behind two grandchildren, Christopher Newkirk Jr. and partner Sarah Sacasa, Jamie Newkirk, and two great-grandchildren, Destiny and Sienna Newkirk.

His obituary notes that Cicchetti was an enthusiastic Harley Davidson rider, frequently seen riding to Town Hall. He also enjoyed fishing, golfing, playing guitar, cooking, dining out, and summering at the shore.
He was an active member of Sacred Heart Church and the East Dover Social Club, affectionately known as “The Coop,” where he loved to play cards with friends.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in his memory to the Dover Rescue Squad, 37 N. Sussex Street, Dover, NJ 07801, or to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
