Bikers gear up for gathering
Bikers from across the UK were in Oswestry at the weekend for a festival of motorcycling displays and live music.
They were braving the overcast weather to take part in the Harley-Davidson International Rally, at Oswestry's Park Hall Showground.
The four-day event, which began on Friday, was just one of many festivals and shows taking place across Shropshire and Mid Wales during the bank holiday weekend. This is the second year running that The Harley-Davidson Riders Club of Great Britain has held the event in the town.
The showground is open to club members only, with non-members admitted if they have a Harley-Davidson. Club members will also be staging displays in the town throughout the weekend.
They said a highlight of the show would be a 100-mile ride out around the town, to raise money for Hope House Children's Hospice.
Tickets for members cost £20 for members and £30 for non-members.
Crowds are expected to flock to other events in Shropshire in Mid Wales over the bank holiday weekend, including a steam railway festival at Onslow, near Shrewsbury.
