In the past few years, there has been a Moto Guzzi V.11 UK meet, organised primarily through the V.11LeMans board:  http://www.v11lemans.com 

The gatherings have been for V.11 board members and friends and sometimes other marques have been invited

I used the 'Ulster' name for this year's event, mainly because of historical motorcycling resonance with such as 

• the Motorcycle Union of Ireland with its Ulster Centre 

The MCUI has the distinction of being the oldest national governing body of motor cycle sport in the world.
The Motorcycle Union of Ireland (MCUI) was formed on 7th March 1902 and pre-dates both the Auto Cycle Union - the British mainland governing body, founded in 1903 - and the world governing body, the FIM (Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme – International Motorcycling Federation, which was founded in 1904).

• the Ulster Grand Prix ('the world's fastest road race')
• and even the Rudge Ulster
