No worries on pace, ride your own ride, thats what I say!
k, let me know what you fancy!
my bike is getting motd tomorrow and I have no baby sitter - maybe tag along next time, saying that if its not a slow ride, let me know, Ive not ridden for about 18 months - wee bit nervous

Steady mate, this is a U rated forum. :rolleyes: :)
aye, but wheres the fun in that :D .
hope you had fun, raptor failed its MOT so no ride out this weekend for me either

Hope it's nothing serious with the raptor, I'd guess Adam isn't allowed back in until it's sorted then........:)
I'm at Rhy at the moment, enjoying the sun, but the ride was OK, Ash had a technical problem about a mile or two from Brighton and had to be recovered, but nothing major, still a good day out on the bike.
got a couple of pics I'll post when I get home later.
Cheers Mark.
What bad luck eh! Guess i deserved it for not replacing the clutch cable when i knew it needed doing, turns out the cable i have at home is 4 inches too long, got to beg them for a replacement as i did buy it back in january lol.
Nice ride there though! Nice to meet you Mark, will be nice to see the pics of me being toed! :)
Ash.

Hope you managed to attack the Dyke before breaking down! Nothing like a fast left hander coming over a Dyke!

Doing our little bit for St Georges day, The red, White and err..... blue!
Ash, How long did it take you to get back, and did you manage to replace the cable?
got back dead on 5, not bad but could have been better! The guy was asking me where to go lol i had no idea!
Cable would have been replaced if i had the correct one, need to call up wemoto in the morning and bash some ears!
Did you have a good ride back?

Got completely and utterly lost (on purpose-ish) on some rural un-named roads, grass and mud in the middle of the road etc. Had to stop and google my location, miles from anywhere I was.
My mirror is from Wemoto.... y'know the floppy one, looks like they are going down hill.
Got back nigh on 5pm too.

Made it to Rhy as expected, some nice "dirty" roads to, chilled out sitting in the sun for a couple of hours before making my way home, a good day I'd say.
Cheers Mark.

Yeah, not the first problem i had, admittedly the calliper seal was damaged from factory but it still caused a week delay getting my bike sorted and now this, they are sending out a shorter cable and i have to send the long one back. After two problems with one order, not sure ill use them again.
Good to hear you both got home ok!
