This is the sight that greeted me as I came over the Clwyd Gate this evening as I came home (typing is hard as a bottle of wine has passed my lips...............)

Just want to add my thanks to Mike for organising and leading us all around the peak district.
Oh and a huge thanks to Mike for carrying around a set of hex keys ;-) that Suzuki-supplied tool kit is a waste of space :(
Without which I'd have been hand-tightening the nut and then checking every 15 minutes ;-)

Great day - thoroughly enjoyed it ... oh and I'm late posting cos when I got home I had to get all my stuff ready for my jaunt down to Coventry first thing in the morning :rolleyes:

Can't wait for NW3 now :D Bring it on!

Oh, and that ice at Derwent/Ladybower was baaaaaad ... don't wanna do that again ;-)

Cheers everyone - nice to see most of you again, and good to see Si (5hort5)!

A la Pete and Lissa's ride for the south midlands, lets have a bit of feedback.

How was the ride for length?

How did the marker system work for you?

How did you feel about riding in a group?

Did you feel pressured to keep up and why? (no names, no pack drill)

Anything you did / didn't like?

All feedback welcome
