I assume this means she'll have to get a Lambretta and a Parka with a target on the back - I mean, she might as well look the part...

But seriously, she puts in the hours on here and seems to be happy to organise stuff so yeah, I agree.

Well, you don't have to come. Why are you the only one that complains about going to the Ferry? I ride / travel to the TA ( close on a 70 mile round trip) so I'm sure doing a few miles into England isn't going to hurt you. We could always change the meet to one of the pubs along the Wye Valley if you like. Its just quite nice at the Ferry and everyone else likes it. Plus the owners are biker friendly.



I'm hoping to be there but it all depends on whether I've finished looking at potential jobs in time. Got a few to look at tomorrow evening - the last one being near Monmouth.

You might see me. You might not.

As far as I can tell, Squirrel is coming with us, Vix might be coming, Alex will if he gets home in time, Nick the same, Veebs is pondering so I just told him to get his **** over as I think he may be bringing the famous Gemma with him. Ben posted too so I'm sure he's coming and I'll get in touch with Beenz now. You heard from Viper lately???

Still storing by the way. I'm formulating some plans for your punishment!!! :safe:

Not suffocation by condom......you just better go and buy some if you want sex anytime soon because you'll have to go get it somewhere else!

I just got a fully comp quote for the cat and I have had to double check I put everything in properly. I put it down to start the Friday of my test 0 no claims bike, obviously and 0 no claims car as I need to confirm how many years I have (I think 7). I put in that I would pay £500 excess to get a cheaper quote and the results are as follows:-

AQuote, fully comp, £200 excess, full legal cover = £211

TP, F&T = £163

TP Only = £146

What do you think about that???

Good turn out, even a few Taffia, including blue curvy jester, who I've not met before.

My bike threw a bit of a strop on the way back. Thanks all for stopping, and Stretchie & cheryl for tailing me home. So it's down the Kwak garage tomorrow see if they can find anything wrong. Within the couple of days i've got left on the warranty. :rolleyes: The timing is uncanny, you'd think it was deliberate planning.

I had my FI light flash red on me on the M4 :o went to pull over, dropped a gear to start slowing down, and the light went out... stopped up by a McDonalds further up to check oil levels etc.. had comments off Gemma about me and burgers, and stopping... :p oil level was fine.. just think the bike disliked being in 6th gear at low revs with pillion aboard....

p.s. See Squirrell... my bike will take pillions :p

Good to know you boyos got back ok.

Me tyre seamed to have air in it still when I got in so I'll see in the morning, I'm expecting a trip to Bike Treads. Thanks to all for keeping in formation and GG for the forecourt help. I'm getting a little fed up though, the idea of the new bike was something more reliable.

I think we all need to turn Gemmas boobs into burgers or something so that VB brings her everywhere with him. WE LIKE GEMMA!!!

As for tonight, definately having a BBQ, if the weather turns ****ty just come inside so no big deal.

I'll make sure I am in the house and settled by 6 and will just be getting food done with Rach in a womans place in the kitchen......"IS'T THAT RIGHT STRETCH?????"

Anyhoo......hope to see you all and to repeat what everyone else has said, great night last night. Good to actually be in a place where we can all comfortably fit around one table. Maybe we could go there again even if it's just a MoFo's meet!

See that’s the start of your problems VB!! , mine has done that a couple of times in 6th at around 70MPH, I agree it don’t like low speeds in 6th.

Still can’t believe you inflicted that pillion razor blade on such a lovely girl. She must be used to small things between her legs eh!!! LOL

It was good to meet some new faces, and to finally see a nice looking Gixer In the strawberries and cream one Vick had.
Want to swap??

My bike is booked in for a Dyno run tomorrow at 10 to prove if it has a problem with the fuelling
