We got back about an hour ago and was a pretty good day
My mate called me to say that traffic was chaos so we decided to head over on the bike, oh for the joys of filtering all the way from Northampton to silverstone!

The A43 was solid all the way and the M1 had problems around here too.

It took us about 15 minutes but some of our friends took 4 hours!

Took me 2 hours to get out of car parks, I wasn't so silly to use A43, I went stowe/buckingham way, I was silly enough to have a feckin shunt more to come with pics.

A fantastic weekend ruined in one turn of the engine! Grr!

We went the back way home too, Jenn wanted to see what the new bike can do

Sorry to hear about your shunt though mate

I did txt you earlier and kept an eye open for you at silverstone.
