We used to stop at the Royal Oak in our scooter days on the way to Brid. On one occasion we had more than just the usual 1 pint and had several. We kipped in the car park. Great days.

I bought it from Terry Robinson's A1 scooters on Balby Road.
Sounds Monty Pythonish but we used to go to Brid for the weekend regularly and I used to have about 50p pocket money! We slept in a sheltered bus stop opposite the old beacon tower as you enter Flamborough Head. The lady in the house nearby used to fetch us tea and biscuits in the morning. Fond memories flooded back every time I drove past that shelter over the years since, until the last time, when they'd knocked the bugger down.Great, GREAT days!
My cousin had a Lambretta, he spent more time pushing it than riding it, as soon as magneto got wet it broke down

Doncaster Hunters. That brings back memories. Around half a dozen of us from Wheatley used to meet up with them in the '70s at the baron piece of land in town that is now The Colonnades.
