Back to Wales safe and sound. Had abit of fun away from the bridge toll point, and an undercover policeman in a car decided it wasnt the best thing for me to overtake him at about 90 cranked right over with a pillion and all my gear :smt017

however he was a bike cop too. I was very nice and polite and he gave me abit of a talking to and sent me on my way with a little warning notice thing :smt038 :riding:

very happy/lucky

thanks for a great weekend to all who organised it and nice to meet so many nice people :smt006

That's me home but not without incident......

......My chain came off at around Junction 18 on the M6 whilst I was in the fast lane. That was a change of underwear moment.

Phoned the recovery peeps and got me and the bike taken home and got back about 9PM. Will have a look tomorrow but I think there is damage to the clutch mechanism as weel.

Thanks for a great weekend though folks. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

I is home.

Unlike the others who are still at the campsite! Not sure exactly who's still there, but I got a text from Spiderman earlier this evening saying that they'd just had a Chinese and were about to get the fire going again.
