'We are the Mods, we are the mods!"

Hundreds of mods were taken back to the swinging 60s this weekend as they cruised along Brighton seafront on their Vespas and Lambrettas - fifty years after their infamous clash with the Rockers.

The annual Mod Weekender event invites Mods back to their spiritual home, with many riders donning their finest mod gear for the occasion.

The gathering, which has been running for 10 years, saw the enthusiasts enjoy food, live music and a hotly-contested scooter competition at Volks Tavern, near Brighton Pier - where the scooters arrive in iconic mod film Quadrophenia.
