The boys and girl from the EAR all met up at Red Lodge today for the first time since last year. Here's a few pictures of what we got up to. :) Excuse the rough panoramic shots, my hands were freezing. :D

A nice panoramic shot of all the bikes at the transport cafe.

Just as we got to the train crossing the gates went down then the Police helicopter flew overhead pretty low.

A quick pick while the gates were down.

It was then a quick stop off at a random pub.

Everyone went inside to defrost a little.

We were all then given raffle tickets and we were all confused as to what we could win. Then some pointed out the chicken a meat on the side of the bar. Needless to say nobody wanted to win this raffle. Mike come close on 2 occasions but the new guy Marco number was picked. His prize, a lovely uncooked breakfast. :lol:

Nice one Seggons. I think we should make it an annual event, and include that pub every time!
It was good to meet everyone today. Despite the cold (and it was bloody freezing. I've only just warmed up!) I enjoyed myself a lot. Let's plan another one :)

Thinking about the "local pub for local people" still makes me chuckle too!
I can remember sitting there thinking "please don't win" but then also thinking " please let Mike win a turkey" :D

All time classic random pub action!

Since I've not been doing much today I thought I'd get the video all cut up and uploaded. Just a few clips from the rideout.

Nice video again Seggons. Pity your camera doesn't show the temperature, as it looks like a warm day!

Or the frostbitten toes and fingers.

I'm disapointed Marco collecting his raffle prize wasn't included in the vid:smt080

Alot of the footage I couldn't use. Since it was a very cold day and my bike was hot the footage turned out like this.

Nice one. Didn't know there was a camera rolling. It was a good (if cold) day and the fly by from the police was fun, so were the first open roads we were on. The second half needs work for next year :)
