forgot to take my camera - left it on the bloody fireplace at home :/.
cheers for a great weekend lads ( and lasses)
well done to ziggy for keeping up on that quick bit lol
cheers to sarah & kev for toting my gear so i could travel light
and to dave & mrs for putting up with us & use of the turdis which was well; appreciated this morning as the chilli cheese and chinese burnt it's way out!
bring on the next meet ... preferably somewhere on the equator this time!
had a cracking ride home today though, really enjoyed it..... we ride round there regularly and the roads are brill - just a pity for the southern lads that you didnt get to ride them in the dry as it really does come alive when you get a move on.
next time eh

Glad u all had a great time despite the weather and all got back in one piece this time
Re: June 24th - 26th - Cross Keys Pub - Swanwick, Derbyshire
Rode up on a 500 single for a while until I found the loose connection on the rear coil, but it went faultlessly after that.
Weather?- we peaked too soon, ride back in the road works all the way down the M1/M25 was scorching.....
But I remembered my waterproofs this time, (it was Benny's turn to forget his) so although it drizzled most of the rideout I didn't get too wet.
+1 big thanks to Dave and Angela for hospitality, ever considered buying a pub down Sarf?
I remain impressed with Dunlop Sportsmarts, grip was immense, wet or dry.
Good to meet you all and meet a few new owners, a good w/e.
Back to work for a rest

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Duplicating what has already been said but thanks to Dave and angie for putting us up, nice to see the extended family and some new faces, thank god there were not to many more of us camping cause my hammer would not have been man enough to get tent pegs In the carpark tarmac.
Next meet I'm coming up 2 days before or after, cause it will rain for the ride out day. Need to get a ride nearer the south, we barely see rain and if it does we can ride back and forth down the dartford tunnel doing kill with backfires for free.
Like to do a meet near a bike track at the weekend of bsb, So the Sunday ride back will be to racing then home.

If we were to goto silverstone and camp at say Hamiltofields camp site, there would be a large turn out of bikes, as then would be camping for the bsb.

Hi all, Just want to say thanks to Dave & Angie for looking after me and cheekyads, also thanks to everyone that turned up for another great meet up,
thanks again to everyone for making Adam feel welcome and part of the team, he really loves meeting you lot and being part of the whole scene. Pity about the rain, It did put a bit of a dampener on things, with this we couldn't really blast around so I decided to pick some interesting scenic roads, hope you all enjoyed them, me Ads had a nice trip home in the Dubbus stopping off at Matlock for a bacon butty with the bikers, all in all we had a great time
