Big Parade
The big NOC gathering that I attended was in 1998. The weather was glorious. Over 400 Nortons paraded from the NMM along the main route to Bracebridge Street where we were greeted by John Hudson and Geoff Duke. I believe that from this gathering evolved the Tester's Run, celebrating the routes ridden by the Norton Factory Testing Team in all weathers.
