Didn't take many pics, but here's a few of the intrepid Mondays Stragglers posse that made it to Tan Hill Inn:

Blimey.
three Bms and a TDM, looks more akin to an offroad rally..

even rained to make it more authentic

But there was a queue for the black pump at the filling station

My pics


Debs is approached by a Fazer Owner and asked if she'd like to nibble his banana



Andy gets back from the loo to find Chris has added a little more chilli sauce to his pizza



Birthday cake, Chips and a pint of Boddies to wash it down. Nothing wrong with Scouse etiquette



Keen for the off Debs is embarrassed when she realises that she'd forgotten to put in her earplugs



Suppose this is what they call giving a helping hand to the unemployed



As the bike of choice for Jules, Fern & Gaynor, Beebs investigates what makes the VFR such a ladies bike



Gaynor warming the seat ready for M40Man



Gabbi and the Romanian Rocket



Roger sampling Maryport Fish & Chips



The return of the Bassetts Pole Bin Browser!



Mandy was relieved to discover that a TwentyMan special was not what she had first dreaded.



So Gabi asked Wullie "are you English or Welsh"?



Ed Wins the 2008 Loud Shirt Competition.......



With Ian a close second
Last years winner Roger didn't bother this time and just wore his work suit



Bob Can't resist with the old standard.. "Whilst your down there"



Roger advises the the new Steves that they will always remember their first run



Martin advises Gabi that he'll be happy to take a trade-in for the GL500



Gaynor, Steve and Steve awaiting news on Steve. (never a Dave when you need one) ;D




As the gazebo disappears in the wind and rain Ian regrets the comment from the previous night stating
how the weather is so much better than Normandy

Does that bin not make the seat height a bit too high? ;D

Excellent pics Gabi.

Of course this set includes the route of the true adventurers who tackled Hawkshead Hill, Wrystone Pass and Hardknott Pass. The pics include Wrystone Pass and our lunch stop in Conistan.

Was quite a surprise while riding through Eskdale to be confronted with an entire flock of sheep being herded up towards us - but not quite a shock of stalling the TDM on a 30% inclined hairpin

Loved it! ;D

Very nice photos. I found something interesting for me in it.
