We had some business to conclude re some parts & a few more bits were pecured for the VFR/Storm hybrid racer.

Whilst chatting we discussed the possability of DevonStorm 2017...Now Malc is not sure he will be able to do it this year due to work, family hols & racing his VFR/Storm hybrid but might make it a biannual affair from now on...ie 2018 & 2020 ect...


However after he left it got me thinking that as it has been so much fun the last two years we could book up the chalets again anyway...I'm sure between us we can find some fun roads to ride...

Your thoughts ?

we could do a different location, like the Coalville etc

Or South Yorkshire

North Yorkshire
Yeah & It's still a ride out in Yorkshire...Red you keep posting mildly aggressive (IMO) posts regarding rideouts & no one wanting to join in with you.

As I see it you have a couple of choices...

Get on your bike & ride it to a preplanned ride out like the Yorkshire one... I live in Kent that didn't stop me from riding to Wales or Devon for a meet up...

Or...

Organise your own one more local to yourself...be it just a day or a weekend...Just be fleixible with the dates, don't expect everyone to be avaliable on the days you want to ride.

Sorry If that comes across abit shity, it's not meant to be...Join up with one of the forum rideouts. You won't regret it...
I've done 5 now & they are a huge hoot. :thumbup:
Maybe I'll see you on one one day...I'll be the one at the back of the train...Slow yeah maybe but possibly with the biggest grin...

Oh & someone has to be at the back to help pull bikes out of ditches... :lol: :lol:

We had a small but perfectly formed one day ride in Northumberland a little while ago. Both Mr. Ziggi and Ady suggested a repeat may be in order. Either that or perhaps use part of the Yorkshire meet to head a bit further north for a bit.

The trouble with tacking something on to Yorkshire is that there is so much up here and it extends into the Borders. Probably really does deserve a dedicated OP.

Wot fink you?

Must admit I had a feeling you take exception to my posts but I assure you there is absolutely no aggression there, only my pretty crap sense of humour, nothing more. If I was genuinely upset about anything I would let you know.
I'm in for the north yorks meet next year and hopefully for the full period this time, at the back of course as I dont really like the fast stuff.
It would be nice to gather in south yorkshire yes but I dont have a burning desire for it to happen, I believe it has more to do with the distance involved coupled with my dodgy back.
If my comments upset you in any way then I apologise but may I suggest you take the majority with a large pinch of salt, as I do with your own.

Don't do Salt...It's bad for you.

Didn't know you had a dodgy back.

Not upset at all by comments made so no need to apologise & your sense of humour can't be any more crap than mine... :Group Hug:

I might have to pop down anyway and tap you up for a 15k service if you are willing at sometime in the summer. So you won't be shot of me.

Sorry, can't play for six months, so no jokes from me until July.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
