Sorely disappointed, I was going to offer to take him on the North of Scotland leg of the journey. Not much room behind me, I know, but he's only a little bloke.

Now the boys have had time to depart the county, I'd like to express my thanks to all involved in bringing my baby home . It was nice to see Mac at Jacks Hill cafe, though happily we didn't need the support van . Of course, the man who deserves the highest praise is young Trev, seen here preparing himself for the handover, & for taking my TRX as I climb aboard the fine-running D9: He checks out the controls on the TRX: ....... & we're away, South-bound . Quick brew, & they saddle-up, Lincs-bound: Trev has a bit of trouble getting comfrtable (we hope that's what's going on ), & they're away .... Thanks chaps

300 miles and 8 hours later, I am finally home. Thanks to Trevs expert bit of spannering, finding then fixing the cock up fault, the D9 was safely delivered into the ham fisted hands of Martin. Thanks for the ride on Trixie, she is a great bike. The ride back to Newark was fun where my giver of the golden rivet was successfully handed over to Deeps for the final leg of his epic journey. Would I do this trip again?....You bet

Well the adventurer returns and all seems well. The D9 behaved impeccably*, the TRX was fun and The Fazer a blast Thankyou to my wingman Clive for the company down to Groovy Grove and the pillion ride back to nr. Newark, quick glass of ice cold coke and then the homeward leg kindly completed by David (Deeps). Nice to feel the lurve** from fellow bikers needing a hand and once again forum members show their worth (one even showed his appreciation by buying the breakfasts at Jack Hills), good to see Mac and the Tiger out too. * now if someone's not forthcoming with the answer to the 64 million dollar question, I feel a lengthy pi55 taking thread brewing **Clive felt my lurve, see video above Thanks again to all concerned, stay safe and oil free

Glad to see you all made it back home OK. Sorry I couldn't hang around for the full journey but I had to get back to attend to family duties. At least I managed to cop a free bacon & egg sarnie and brew from Martin .
The morning has thrown up a couple of competition opportunities....Clive: "I see the tablets have worked and the swelling has gone" Trev: "What do you mean? It's still swollen!!" Also lets have a game of Blankety Blank... Martin can start
