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

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

very happy/lucky

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

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.
