Thanks to all that turned up today. 17 bikes I think at the start. Was a great ride out to Bourton on the Water. Met Gaynor & Andy who were camping down there. In true style we lost 3 but got them to the lunch stop after a bit of a faff about. Hope you all enjoyed it and have fun in Scotland. Unfortunately I can't go as I have used all my brownie points on Europe 3 days later. Pics courtesy of Nigel

Thanks Matt.
Some great roads, and I'm glad no-one came to grief on the Mickleton-to-Ilminster twisties.
And you excelled yourself with the weather!
After leaving the run at Wellesbourne I retraced part of the route from Compton Verney to Hook Norton, then kept on going south and treated myself to the Charlbury TT to round off a brilliant day.

Ah yes. I remembered where we were when I topped out on the rise up the hill. Mr Green (Old Father Time ) should remember it well too!! My wife certainly does!!!

Wonderful weekend, thanks Matt 🙂. I learnt some things too.
Having a last one in the pub always seems to mean having several 🍺. Teejayexc still snores. Matt has a doppleganger. Markers should stay put. Name withheld to protect the guilty 😐.
Speighty will be interested to know that the Guzzi got home with only one bolt missing 😃.

Awesome day.... hopefully have some footage, assuming the Gopro worked !!!
Nice to see some old faces and some new.... was an awesome day!! Had a chance to test out the quick shifter on the RT... works a treat
Glad you only lost one bolt Martin.... I'd call that a success !!

Sounds like you all had a good day, sorry I couldn't join you for the run.
Was good to share a 'few' jars with some good mates on Saturday night though, went with Martin to have a word with Woger, he'd be chuffed to see the wun still so well attended.

We landed back just after 9.00pm. We had a great ride up through Derbyshire, then hung a left into Chesire and jumped on M6 at Knutsford. Special thanks to Matt - also thanks to all attendees to the run and the pub on Saturday for their company.

Btw Martin - was there any oil left in the Guzzi? Saw you offering it up to the main jet (if it had one) a few times.
