Thanks to Mac, Debs, Gaynor & Roger for marking on the day
Cracking roads, nice scenery and apart from Fern's screw in her rear ( oooeerrrr missus ) no incidents.
We had a great time and it was good to catch up with all the old reprobates again.
Jan said to say thanks for being made to feel welcome into the group.
We look forward to our next club run.

Got home at about 8pm.
Thankyou Mac and Debs for a great weekend, and for putting me up for the night, thanks also to Mac & Debs boys for the hugs and the mick taking, I'll have you know my boots do come in adult sizes
Also thanks to everyone who helped out over the weekend, Nick? the DJ, those who helped backmark, etc
It was great to meet up with everyone again and good to meet some new faces, I hope Hugh joins the site & joins us again on some runs, he seemed to enjoy himself and I hope Tom doesn't ache too much tomorrow and will join another run soon.
Thankyou to Roger to leading the way back to signposts that showed me the way to the M6, it probably saved me any unscheduled sight-seeing
Doof

Thinks it's all been said, thanks to all the organisers for a great weekend, Saturday night was a great event.
Beebs, glad you got a pork pie
Gaynor - Glad to hear you realised your mistake, by the time we had got around the island you had gone so we assumed you were heading the right way.
Great time
Ian & Pat

More info required on this please ? At the second to last roundabout Tom was knocked off the bike by a pillock curry delivery boy in a smart car. Tom was shaken but OK. Bike was lightly damaged (indicator, lever, blowing on the exhaust). Photos were taken and details were exchanged with (I think) Ben & Woger as witnesses. Tom rang me later to confirm he made it back to Southend OK. |

As said before, megga thanks to Debs, Mac, & family for sorting out a great run and to all those who helped make it a great time and two rides out. The accomodation was great and the directions home today were spot on. Called in to see a friend on way home and got back around tea time so it was a great extended week end run.
