Isle of Wight Lambretta Day is celebrating its 21st anniversary.

The popular event was established in June 1999 to launch Lambretta clothing at Generation, the Newport clothes store which was part of the Visual Impact group at the time.

The first event was attended by around 20 scooter riders, including Visual Impact’s Steve Robson and his 1956 Lambretta Model D scooter.

It has since grown into an annual event with more than 300 scooters from the Isle of Wight and visiting clubs, plus individual riders.
