That was really good, can't believe the weather we got... I was so keyed up for a soaking ride through hell that I spent the whole first section totally failing to take advantage of the dry roads :)

The obligatory group photos, just like everyone else's...

Took a wee bit of a wrong turn on the way home... Thought this was a shortcut

Also had time for a spot of espionage on the way home

Good Photo's Northy,

I can't help but smile every time I see that signpost.

Its all sort of wrong having a signpost to a secret bunker. Part of the challenge should be to find it surely :roll: :wink:

The second photo from the top (or the top 1) really should be placed on the title page of SV650.org me thinks, but that's just my humble opinon. :-k

Good pics Northy. Was good meeting you and putting a face to the name :)

See you took the coast road home. We went north but lost Dean and Jimmy and went home via longforganerrol/glenfarg. Had a wee spit of rain but nothing major.

Really great day. I'll be riding through the winter as much as poss so hopefully might get another day in.

Not at my end I don't. Just in your reply. Strange that.

Aye, did a bit of the coast road, but I ended up doing a load of inland B-road nadgery stuff from the Top Sekrit Bunker to Largo... I found this one mad b-road that had 6 90-degree or more bends in it, barely even marked, sort of road you'd have to be mad to take a group along because someone's going to end up hedgehunting. Lucky I was going so very slowly :) Then the A-road back from Leven to the bridge.

There's something weird with direct linking to postimage I think... I put the BB code in and it still didn't work, but if I took teh URL out and entered it seperately it was fine.

If anyones got a hi res of the old course shot then send to me and I'll photoshop the wee bridge, some blue sky and a few bits. Should be a bit of fun! :P

Oh they're the same as all the other ones, taken with camera rather than phone so might be that high res thingy you are talking about. Would have taken more but the camera battery was dying, must have been the cold as its ok today.

Stuartyboy if you thought your landrover was bad then you would have liked the s class merc which tried to race Suicide, myself and (Jim i think) with tom tom rider (sorry I'm crap with names) back to cupar, badly cut suicide up at the lights into cupar so I sat at 25mph all through town with this prat about 2 feet off my back wheel :lol: We left him for dead when we hit traffic after cupar.

Cant wait to see jimmys video.

I was kinda hoping he would try something even more stupid than when he cut you up, be interesting to findout if the air bag mercury switch just below the left side of the grill is as sensitive as say a size 9 kevlar coated boot, wonder how much it costs to get them refilled. lol

Hmmm.... I've got a mate that works at Merc in Grangemouth, could be nice to know if it does :lol:
Hit it hard enough... It'd need a new dash :shock: :mrgreen:
