Paignton Bike Night (also known as the English Riviera Bike Night) is the largest and longest-running regular social gathering of motorcyclists in the South West of England.<br />
<br />
Every Wednesday evening from May through late September, typically starting around 18:00<br />
<br />
The event originated in 2003 under the banner of BMAD (Bikers Make A Difference), founded by local enthusiasts Kelvin and Jayne Halloran to bring bikers together along Torbay's coast while raising funds for regional causes. Over the years, management shifted to local organisers alongside Paignton Festival and Riviera Charity Riders.<br />
<br />
To date, the event and its associated festivals have raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for organisations such as the Devon Air Ambulance, Devon Freewheelers (Blood Bikes), St John Ambulance, and regional youth charities.<br />

<p>The first stop on the road trip was Niagara Falls. Specifically, the American side that I had never visited.<br />

I loved how the wispy mist curled around the boats.</p>

<p>The Burj Al Arab  is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is the fifth tallest hotel in the world (although 39% of its total height is made up of non-occupiable space).Burj Al Arab stands on an artificial island 280 m (920 ft) from Jumeirah Beach and is connected to the mainland by a private curving bridge. The shape of the structure is designed to resemble the sail of a ship. It has a helipad near the roof at a height of 210 m (689 ft) above ground.</p>

<p>Had to park my car rental to walk into this field and take a shot of  this lovely rural scene on my way back from Motovun valley in Istria. Good job there were no bulls around to chase me...already been chased by the seagulls during the day. They definitely don't like visitors who refuse to feed them junk...to then be chased by the bulls (which I saw plenty around) would be a bit too much for one day...and it'll make me feel like a fugitive on the run...</p>
