what a journey home me and Tim had

over shap it was howling and windy blowing us across 2 lanes- had to do 40 mile an hour in the inside lane-

helmet kept gettin blown up and side to side- was real real scary ..

stopped at possibly the most expensive motorway services IN THE WORLD


thanks to all for your support after my off- my nerves are a little shot to say the least- damage does not seem as bad as first thought- and my girlfriend came round so I told her about the off and she cried- awww but she happy I told her and not lied.

aching like mad now and still think might pop over the hospital just to get checked out. i might have damaged me brains !!!

was an ce weekend and I still stand by my best 40 minutes of biking ever statement

cheers all..

pX here fit & well
Many thanks for a fantastic weekend - learnt a lot including a bit about riding.
Where's that wrestling thread? feel as if I've done a few rounds with each & every one of them!
Apologies for slowness after Hartside claim I couldn't see, but that didn't slow me down quite so much on Saturday
Thank you one & all! :D

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

No, I couldn't keep up with you :shock: was some scary wind! My tank bag blew off sideways.


Luckily I caught it with my arm so nothing lost.

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

Hey guys n galls

you know my habbit of leaving top box unlocked !

well when i got home i am sorting out things and saying to myself summat is lost :confused:

anyway it dawns after 10 mins that its my waterproof suit :smt022

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

Well I couldn't have gone any quicker myself pX, and I think you win the Iron man award for riding a naked in those conditions.

First time this weekend you couldn't then Stu.:cool:

Sorry to here that Mark. :(. Thing is, Stu and ourselvers saw a waterproof lying in the road on the way up to Hartside IIRC. Pound to a penny it was yours. Wish we'd stopped to pick it up now.

Thanks for everything this weekend mate.:notworthy::notworthy:

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

Didn't Addicted say he'd seen one when we were at Hartside?
If we'd known we would have ridden back for it.
Saw one just a bit after photo shoot at your summer residence, but it looked abit grubby so never thought.Apologies
puny

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

I hope lidl do the offer again soon ;)

as i liked that blooming suit , lined and everything and it's served me so well on many occasions.

I HATE losing things :smt022

So that was rust in my keks?
That's a relief
I think the daft bugger award is more appropriate
I'm off to bed

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

awh sorry mate, at the time I thought it could have been yours & then thought there was no way it could fall out of your top box which looked closed. Bugger!

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

just seen this thread. Thanks for the pleasant company and sorry if I kept anyone awake with my mad dog impressions

Re: North / South 2008 Safely Home Thread
 

It's a really good job we don't have an intercom! All Pete would have heard the whole way home would have been 'F*****g wind. Oh F**k. F*****g Hell. F**k F**k F**k' By the time we got back I had a sore neck and a banging headache caused by the constant buffeting. I felt like Mike Tyson had been using me as a punch-bag:D
