I'm having a Law conversion on my Hornet (except it won't be lowered).

Yes, metallic black. Already have a Sparco carbon fibre mudguard! Looks ace!

I might be there now as bike bits are not getting collected until 19th.

Lee, Scoobs, Jelster...you up for this one?? I havent ridden out with you peeps in a LONG time!!

[clanger]

I think I'm probably going to be going to GuilFest this weekend (free tickets and it's very local!) I'm afraid dude! Sorry :(


Cant say I blame you - I would go if I got free tickets!!!

[Stu]

Sorry, I've got plans to ride around a car park that your route just can't compete with. :(

[rictus01]

Well haven't been out that way myself for a long time, and as I've only got a couple of months riding left I maybe up for it, but as I'm prosuming you're talking about this (http://www.multimap.com/maps/?&t=l&map=50.8694,-0.7745|16|4&loc=GB:50.8694:-0.7745:16) royal oak , I'll probably meet you at Percy Hobbs (http://www.multimap.com/maps/?&t=l&map=50.8694,-0.7745|16|4&loc=GB:50.8694:-0.7745:16#t=l&map=51.06205,-1.25388|16|4&loc=GB:51.06205:-1.25388:16|SO211HL(Percy%20Hobbs)|SO21%201HL) at about 10.30-40, as it's a blat down the motorway if that's alright ?

Rictus...its the Royal Oak on Liphook Lane, near Bordon (off A3/A325)...I will be joining them a little later - possibly at Stonehenge 11.30am.

Getting new back tyre sorted today.

[rictus01]

Oh OK, still probably go to the percy Hobbs though, just as a matter of interest who are they ? will I know anyone, who should I look out for?

I'm easy to spot old honda CB750 with a cripple near by :D

You still got the Purple SV ? (Of course, just re-read you post, you won't be with them at the Percy Hobbs anyway, so no point looking for your bike then)

[clanger]

They...will mostly all be riding suzuki's...they know you will be there as i've told them to stop by and wait.

[Jelster]

Lee, Scoobs, Jelster...you up for this one?? I havent ridden out with you peeps in a LONG time!!

I'm off to the Uxbridge Motor Show on Sunday, been promising my lad that we'd go, so can't let him down...

SOC then I take it ?

Not bottling out or anything, but with this knee you never know, got a contact number just in case ?

PM it across.

Cheers Mark.

[clanger]

I'll probably meet at the Percy actually...see you there - maybe...

[rictus01]

And you did, thanks for the day, Not fantastically social I'm afraid, but it takes alot out of me at the moment, interesting to be a group newbie and sit back and watch what others must see, couple of things that caught my eye and I'd have normally addressed, but hey was happy to just sit back.

Not overly taxing, but a good ride, ended the day with 457 miles on the clock after visiting the Apes on the way back (they say Hi, by the way), so all in all a good day, didn't even get wet :D

Cheers Mark

[clanger]

Yeah cheers for that mate, it was good to see you again...next time to the Gorge I'll stay somewhere local and ride over and enjoy the place at a leisurely pace... not ridden out with that crowd before, must say I prefer riding with a much smaller group personally!! But you never know such things till you try...
