Bike permitting I might be there.

The dark scares me at the moment.

I shall be up in Enfield until 7.30-8 or so, depending how I feel when I get back to my gaff, whether I stop there or carry on, so a "possible" for me.

Cheers Mark.

Maybe, the S3 went back together tonight..

ok, its missing a few bolts, breather hoses, part of the front loom, and has lots of gaffa tape on it. But it started and seems to pull, so i may venture down for a shake down test...:rolleyes:

Brakes are currently absent and on loan elsewhere... so will be attending courtesy of Seņor Squid and his amazing motorcycle* (without thermostat).

Thank you Ian and Caz, who supplied a ray of light to my darkness last night.

Oh and Treacle who noticed I might want to take my bag home...d'oh!

My god it was foggy and cold all of a sudden, so glad I had my lidl gloves in my bag.

Bike didn't like it judging by the clutch slip it gave me when I pulled away.

It was a tad chilly. Makes note to self: Must wear jumper on cold evenings, a t shiurt just isnt substantial enough

indeed, the fog was a tad annoying, the drop in temp from Caterham out was a little off putting to although it was nice to see they had put a decent surface on the roads down that way.

Glad you got back OK Dan, I didn't hang around as you had designated outriders anyway, besides unlit roads with almost freezing fog just adds to the fun right ;).

Pub nice enough, but I felt it wasn't really our sort of place, one more to go on the list.

Cheers Mark.

I was more worried about Caz, since I didnt have any brake lights!

It's all good fun, until you turn off your main beam to stop blinding Ian only to discover its a bit darker than you imagined, and your reasonable pace was now a tad hot given your vision had disappeared! :smt044

So I'm guessing you didn't fancy the " use the force..Luke" approach then :D
