Yep folks, just spoke to the hotel and the repairs to the roof are not yet complete so it is unlikely that the pool will be open in time for the weekend.

To always take a positive....at least you've got room for more beer money in place of your simmers now ;-)

Not coming then. No point if I can't go swimming. We've had a swimming pool at every single AR. Call this organisation? :roll:

Got jus one word for the hotel... It begins with C and ends in unts! Was looking forward to naked pool followed by forcefull ejection from said pool. Oh well, guess I'll have to settle for streaking now!:D

I notice this has only been threatened since it has been common knowledge that Bear isn't coming...

Have a look at the attendance thread by my name. Nakedness has been threatened from the beggining. I'm not scared of Bear, not even after having the man fondle my naked genitalia! :)

You're welcome to borrow the 990 for a bit of practice;)

Clutch and throttle are a little edgy, and it's a mile tall, but I couldn't care less if you throw it down the field:cool:

Unfortunately yes

It's the biggest family gathering of the year on Friday night for Cowes Week fireworks night

Huge BBQ + drinks, and I'm the BBQ master

I'll be riding up on Saturday instead, so will get to say hi to everyone on Saturday evening and Sunday

If anyone wants to take the KTM for a spin feel free to ask, can't imagine it'll be much of a test ride round the field but hey, I'l take photos when people fall off...#-o:D

02-08-10, 07:54 PM
I see what you did there.

I'm currently running a bold Avon Storm on the rear of the 'Bird. When I took it off roading last week it did move around a little more than I expected, but that could have had something to do with the bold front tyre with the bizarre profile...

"Riding" is a slight bending of the true events maybe perhaps?...:-?

"Perching" might be more appropriate...;)


And as for a wet t-shirt competition for the boys, I'm sure the boys will enjoy your show...:cool:
