Winners all in baking Banbury Run

The Vintage Motor Cycle Club’s sweltering 69th Banbury Run of Sunday, June 18, took place only four days before the last issue of Old Bike Mart went to press, enabling us to bring you just a short report and photo selection, so here we follow it up with the full list of results from the day.
