Wasn't too bad soon got the hang of riding again especially now i've put the suspension settings back to standard
Where are these piccies then?!?!
But more importantly, when is the next ride out...I really enjoyed it and hopefully didn't slow anyone down much!
I can't do Sunday this week... mothering Sunday and all that. Should be ok for a quick one on Saturday.
Could meet at Loomies and do THIS (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=A272&daddr=A286%2FDodsley+Ln+to:A287%2FSturt+Rd+to:A287 %2FFrensham+Rd+to:A287%2FFirgrove+Hill+to:Approach +Rd+to:A31%2FAlton+Rd+to:A32+to:51.032381,-1.074772&geocode=FYysCgMd7prv_w%3BFa4XCgMd5Mz0_w%3BFR55CwMd Ztf0_w%3BFfAmDQMdcPbz_w%3BFVZdDQMdIt7z_w%3BFXttDQM doODz_w%3BFYFXDQMdboPz_w%3BFX4VDAMd1tnw_w%3B&hl=en&mra=mi&mrcr=4&mrsp=8&sz=15&via=3,4,5&rtol=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7&sll=51.03516,-1.067176&sspn=0.011712,0.02871&ie=UTF8&ll=51.111713,-0.86998&spn=0.302185,0.615234&z=11)
A272 > Midhurst, A286, A287 > Farnham, A31, A32. (Not sure that link will work).
Say meet at 9:30 - 10 for a bacon sarny???
Hi Rich,
Route looks good but afraid this weekend isn't good for me!
Another sunny weekend I'll definitly be up for it though!

I might see you around on Saturday, however probably won't make the rideout - will be picking up my brand new Sprint ST on Saturday from Rafferty Newmans, so will probably head for the A32/272/31 to start running it in - assuming the poxy insurance cover note actually turns up :mad:
Might drop in to Loomies at some stage, so if you see an 09 plate black ST wobbling around it will be me - come and say hellooo:p
Will be sure to keep an eye out for you...
Sat am rideout folks... just a quick one... be at Loomies by 10am ready to go.

Hmmm, 10am you say - picking up bike at 9 so might be able to make it, however if I am not there then just feck off without me.

I will come down for a hoon if it is open to anyone.
Will rock up with half a plate as it snapped the other day! :lol:
Edit: My mate will come down aswell, he's only on a gpz 305 atm while his insurance money for his fz6 that was written off is being sorted.
Yeah open to anyone... not sure who else is going (or thinking about it)... Perhaps we should do one of these:
1. RichT (blue/silver 56 plate, will be at Loomies 9:30 - 9:45)
2. Matt SV (hopefully - will be running in a blk Sprint ST)
3. Mattie +1 (yella SV650S)

I feel bad for you mate, what happened?
back slid so i tried to recover it run wide hit the gravel then had a romantic meeting with the metal armco upright. Lol
Sorry I didn't make the run guys - still managed to do about 130 miles today though :cool:

got my eye on the rear panels and some forks ( the major one ) so hopefully not too long, but leg has to sort its self out first. I have some old un cracked panels from my first off that the womans insurance company paid out for and i kept. Im going to get them filled faired and sprayed up depending on the price to do this, hopefully not too much. soo maybe a couple of weeks maybe a month. But i will be back :D

Just saw this! Am gutted for you, was a perfect bike, good that you came off ok though, and im sure you will put her back to her former glory!
Chompy, you muppet.
Glad you're OK (ish).
Just got back from a nice sedate bimble (:wink:) and logged in to see this.
Get well soon. You better be back on the road for the BSB mate.
