Sorry for the delay; I took so many that I had to screen them....and resize them

Anyway, here goes..............

At Bassaleg:The Welsh Contigent meeting at the usual place. The Hornets are at the front, natch...

At Gordano:
A couple of Hornets; mine and Dawn's (cbred from the Nest).

My mate Keeno's '04 R6..... poor Mrs Keeno had to do over 330 miles on that perch. Never done more than 30 before

These two managed to keep up with us until Tiverton.....

Chris (Injector from the Nest) tells us that this used to be a Hornet. Nice guy, so I'll believe him

Anna's curvy. Beenz isn't.

Mogs' '03 pointy. He keeps his pies in the tank-bag, the flip-front lid means he can eat them en-route.

A rare sight........Valleyboys bike as Mr Kawasaki intended, i.e. all bolted together

Oh.... hang on.... might have spoken too soon........

Yep...... beginning to look like it......

Mind you, he's flippin quick at dismantling it now

I ask you, what kind of sicko puts fairings on a Hornet?

Mark from Swansea, apparently

Mac99's splendid Z1000....

No comments about toys and batteries, please lads

At Tiverton:
Looks like Xan and Vicky had fallen out en-route.......

Stingo's pointy is smiling despite going rusty....

At Dunster:
Nesties TCHornet (Tim), Injector (Chris) and cbred (Dawn) seem distracted by something.......

.......ah, that's it..... yet another South Walian (Keeno this time) getting a pie out of his tank bag

At Woolacombe:
Valleyboy is still fretting about his bike.....

Just to prove we nmade it to the seaside.....

The food venue..........

....where despite eating a burger the size of Porlock Hill.....

....our glorious leader, sartorial elegance personified, tries to encourage us to join him in The Timewarp

I know I've taken the **** (a bit) but he knows I don't mean it

Thanks for a great rideout Mogs - top chap

Let's hope they are trying to wind you up, eh?

No news from the garage, I take it?

a ticking noise, and generaly all round noisier than usual.... well, the bikes ticking a lot! hence why its booked in anyway...

I really need to lower my average mileage... 18K a years a bit silly isnt it ?!?

Not really Liz has done 17k in a similar amount of time. Its still going strong. All shes had done is replaced the tyres and had it serviced regularly.

Well, if not lower my mileage... then not hit the rev limmiter all the time!

You've not seen Liz ride then. Shes on the limiter alot she rides her bike hard.

11-09-06, 07:03 PM

I quite like the 'used to be a Hornet'. Shows that they don't all have to be bland and boring

Amazing GSX-R, appears to wheelie even when on its sidestand:
