The wild Atlantic Way is a route that covers nearly one and a half thousand miles of the west coast of Ireland from Malin Head in County Donegal to Kinsale in County Cork.
We decided to split the route into three stages. The first stage would be from Ballina in County Mayo to Cushendall in County Antrim. This would be ridden over 3 days. It would be called the Wild Atlantic Way Classic Scoot (Series One) and would attract scooters from all over Great Britain, Ireland & Belgium
The weekend of 3rd & 4th of August saw the first Classic Bike Festival Ireland at Bishopscourt Race Circuit near Downpatrick, County Down. We (The Ulster Lambretta Club) were invited to display some Lambrettas. The Ulster Lambretta Club members own a range of Lambrettas so the offer was accepted and Friday saw the first Lambrettas arrive for the display.

The Lambretta chain guide has been made many times, by many people and in various forms. The ability to have the chain guide pull the chain down as well as push it up has given us the chance to dump the worn chains for new ones.
Some months ago, Anthony Tambs of Scootronics released a new version of the regulator. Many of these products may already exist in one format or another but the quality of the Scootronics is like night and day. The Scootronics Regulator was released in January. It’s 120 Watt AC Regulator with regulated DC output.
Oiltek have been working away at making life easier again for us Lambretta riders with another tool which has been out a while now. This time a smaller and neater flywheel holder that will fit toolbox and easier to take with you when travelling.
