Unfortunately Joe done an hour and went home Helena was awake all night throwing up and I just up and left in the morning so the guilt was eating away at me and I left! Glad I did cos she was proper rough when I got back and so glad I had come back but said I should have stayed out, sounded like an awesome day too but there'll be others

Na you made the right move there mate, ohh yea how was the bike after the rebuild Joe?

Much more power (like I needed that ) I forget how much it drops off with worn rings I assume it's not smoking anymore too?

Na didn't seem to be, But i couldn't see through my feckin goggles anyway

174 miles cause we only stopped once and NO fag breaks. Everyone looked keen - even in the we test part of the day when I went a little bit wrong for 20 seconds with me sat nav. I did it on purpose so I could assess the group as I ride back passed them so we could carry on riding. Left at 9 back by 6. If it was sunny I am sure we could of gone further......

Super day & cheers to Lee for leading / Viv for sweeping.

I have to admit that I was the 'fella with the long legs' who was falling off stood still - my gyroscope was way off in the damp conditions & my centre of gravity was up in my head somewhere.

Nice to get about & ride some new routes with a great bunch of guys.

174 miles & my legs are still feeling it today..........

174 miles is a fair ole loop, that would be my annual mileage in 1 ride

These were the only ones i took,screen on my phone so wet couldnt do athing with it!!

174 miles & only 7 pics, is that it chaps ?

Cant afford a go pro mate.
Perhaps now your a millionaire you could like get some for SWTR.
Only need maybe 100

I didn't take my camera as it's no good just filming from the front. And the weather was pretty poor for stopping and taking pics. You were probably sunning yourself all day Taffy? Lol
