Pretty uneventful really. Some slightly heavy-handed policing and
something approximating an armed standoff round the back of the
Chippenham, but otherwise pretty quiet.

Heh. I may not have been being totally serious.

Interesting that there does seem to have been the usual levels of
serious crime though.

Had it been a bike rally, the police would naturally have banned it.

 

I'd be surprised if you could find 600,000 people who wanted to go to a
bike rally in the first place. Rather low attendance this year.

I read something like 90 arrests. Out of close on a million people,
that doesn't seem too bad.

Hmm. Most of the bike rallies I've been too had a couple of hundred
people at most.

 

When I went to the Farmyard Party in 2000 I thought the overflow
campsite was the main event and was quite impressed with the size of
it[1], little did I know the main site stretched about 3 miles up the
river bank.
