Brechin echoed to the roar of motorcycle engines for the town’s second Bike and Trike Fest.

Launched in 2024 by a group of local enthusiasts, the day gave bikers a chance to enjoy the roads of Angus before sharing their pride and joy at a family event in Brechin Park.

The event began with a gathering and rideout from Brechin Castle.

It took the motorcyclists past Netherton Cottage just west of the town.

The cottage is the one-time home of the Davidson family, which went on to found the iconic Harley-Davidson brand.

It is now in the hands of the Davidson Legacy Preservation Group after a successful £330,000 fundraising campaign to secure the historic property.

Following the short tour of Angus, the bikes and trikes parked up as the centrepiece of the fun day at Brechin Public Park.

It featured live music, traders, stalls and a funfair.

The public also had the chance to vote for their favourite machine.
