You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Kev, good to see you and Adam, but I though it was a bit harsh to make him pay his own share of the bill in the Curry House :lol:

hope to see you out on the bike next time.............and bring Sue, having a few women in the camp has a +ve effect, as Benny is on his best behaviour, and it stops the conversation being restriced to a bunch of blokes talking baldrocks about bikes :lol:

cheers guys and girl for a great weekend loved every minute of it, thanks to Neil for staying behind on Saturday morning and holding my hand cause I was scared to go with the big boys.

all in all another great weekend with the exception of the spill, but times like that show how close we have become and how much we will do for a friend in need. Got to meet some really nice people and some not so nice common folk that keep turning up every year :)

Note for next year the firestorms owners will have to make more of an effort, otherwise they will be out numbered by non firestorms, unless we can convert them in the year, I think Si might be a convert from his Transalp, we will wait.

I would like to thank George for being great an organising the event, it would probably loose momentum if he did not take an active roll in it all.

It was a bit quiet for me, have to watch the pennies atm, but you can't miss the Welsh Wales Wooly Wet Weekend, can you.

But another excellent Forum meetup, might have to see if I can persuade the wife to come in the car next time and bring the marquee and oildrum bbq.
And the disco.
And the beer fridge.

Pat on the back for all wot had anything to do with it, and those that turned up.
:thumbup:
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I had a fantastic weekend. Thanks all for the warm welcome.

I've not ridden in Wales before; I will again!

We need to change the forum to BMW.org I think!? :twisted:

good to meet you Mike, every ride out needs a GS or two to act as a fuel tanker for the stranded storms :thumbup:
