Hmm... looks like a good time was had by all. Must say, I'm impressed with your photoshop skills - you managed to get rid of all the raindrops *and* make it look as if the sun was out

Up the brightness down the contrast cut & paste some smiles on the faces easily done just trying to make the North look good not fooled. Neil

A bit disappointed there's no music to go with the slide show you must have been back a couple of hours when you posted them more than enough time. Neil

Neil Not sure I can add music on Photobucket in any case, I wouldn't have been able to hear it anyway as I forgot my earplugs The video will definately have music, maybe a bit of Westlife and Pavarotti, you know heavy metal and the like ;D

A couple from me to start with. From the extended run, via Nottingham: Chris getting down & dirty with my rear: Dave taking control of the workshop area, citing important health & safety practices, generally supervising the workshop activity: (Pic is a bit blurred as he was very busy & constantly moving about.)

Right - A few more from me. Saturday, near Spurn Point, we descend to annoy some 'twitchers'. Or were they just particularly brazen peeping Tom's : As the backmarker arrives, the adventure boy is already pointed in the direction of the Sun Inn: Di enjoys a sandwich at the Sun Inn: In the noisy pub, whoever Debs is describing with hand gestures, Jane clearly agrees with her: Can't have been me - I wasn't sitting in that direction ;D : Looks like Di agrees. But Paul appears shocked: Out on the road, tension rises as Neil flatly refuses to share his helmet-mounted liquorice lollipop: M40Man enjoys a moment of peace & quiet away from the crowds. (Not a cup of tea in sight. ) : And again, about half a mile further along: Later on, Fiasco explains to Mrs Fiasco that he'll be late home because a Fazer rider forgot to check if he had enough tread for the whole weekend. By all accounts, she was not surprised:

Martin,
Was the first pic of your bike when you'd realised you'd got a puncture (bald patch, through to chord clearly visible......)
The second when you'd given up pushing it?

... (bald patch, through to chord clearly visible......) Does it not occur to you that perhaps I'd applied a chewing-gum patch in an effort to rescue myself ;D. Actually that patch is a marker I'd placed where the puncture was, for when my Knight in Shining Armour showed up. Naturally, it fell out by the time I encountered Fiasco, as I'd moved the bike. Soon realised I couldn't get air in fast enough to travel more than a few hundred yards [1] at a time. Luckily the hole was plenty big enough to find again. [1] I may have broken an EU directive. Please convert to metric as appropriate.

Please convert to metric as appropriate. Actually that chewing gum patch lasted for rather longer than that, whilst I was checking for traffic at said incident, I almost came unstuck, no pun intended, when treading in aforemetioned patch and not being able to move from the path of an oncoming Landrover trev

Maybe he's resting it from holding his phone to his ear all the rest of the time? I thought there were a lot of pics of me on the phone too, most of them were taken in the 10-15 mins of calls from Martin begging for me to plug him. I went for a bimble on Deb's 600 while I thought about it, then Martin called again, as the plugging Mac was offering him wasn't likely to last long enough to give him satisfaction all the way home Dave ;D

[ Deb's thinks she hears thunder and points out the general direction of the sounds, Babs heard it too!Di recognised the sound from an earlier encounter and informs Paul why his beer went flat, Fiasco was passing wind on the Patio!

Beverley up into North Yorkshire. Other videos are being processed. uk.youtube.com/watch?v=uuWyWgESMB8Go to YouTube and select the high quality option if this quality is a bit ropey, but it will take some time to load up for uninterupted viewing.
