Brigg Bike Night 2018 held on Friday, July 6 (last night)  enjoyed perfect summer evening weather.
People  of all ages, including many family groups, came from far and wide to admire the bikes - some old, some not so old - ridden to the venue on Bridge Street, just off the A18, by their proud owners.
As ever, classic British Triumphs and BSAs attracted particular attention from those of a certain age.

On a warm night, scores of visitors took full advantage of local bars to refresh themselves, including Bike Night HQ the Yarborough Hunt (pictured above)  and its Bridge Street neighbour the White Hart, which has a beer garden overlooking the Old River Ancholme.
They also visited various vans and stalls selling snacks and ice cream.

On the other side of the County Bridge, some gleaming bikes were  lined up outside the Woolpack.
Many people took advantage of fast food outlets within the town centre, particularly Scalinis chippie, before heading home.
Members of Brigg District Lions again assisted as volunteer marshals at the event and Humberside Police were in attendance, keeping a watching brief.
A number of hostelries laid on live music for Bike Nighters to enjoy later in the evening.
Apologies that Brigg Blog was unable to visit them all, but we did manage to catch up with Barton band The Rizlas at the Britannia Inn (pictures below).
Their wide range of 1960s and 1970s covers went down well with customers until late in the evening.
