Christmas morning great idea ride, 25/12 - SV650.org

17-12-06, 05:55 PM

For one reason or another I am not riding on christmas day where I intended to be, mainly due to a lack of saving up

Instead, I am taking christmas dinner in this probably more salubrious but less exotic location

C'est la vie, some you win some you lose etc.

HOWEVER, as I do not have to depart for the riviera until about 12.30 I am DETERMINED to ride for an hour on christmas day, something I have never done.

So anyone want to join me on this most stupid of ventures, weather permis? Probably run up and down Wye Valley or Mendips, depart 9.30am Cribbs. I need to be back home by 11.30.

Up till last year I had ridden,sailed or played golf on New Years morning--------just as mad

Sounds daft enough for me to join, weather permitting... I refuse to ride the bike in a tornado or pea soup fog.

At that time the sun should not be blinding either over the Wye Valley either

Yes, the whole of the afternoon seems a problem at the moment. My intended route is up valley and back over top. About 1 hour.

Keep the battery charged and the spririts up when your sat there thinking I'd rather be on the bike.
