Sunday 8th Anyone in Reading area
 
WAs thinking about going for a run out to Foxes, get breakfast of drink, look at all the other bikes..etc...

So anyone in the Reading area interested in coming too?
Route will probs be along lines of up through Caversham, Then along the A4074 all the way to Foxes. Then might come home via Didcot, and Blewbury, then along the A417, A329 as some good views and good bits of road that way too.

I am hopefully going to see the specialist in a week or so, to see if i can get the all clear to ride, prior to surgery(de Puniet style). No pain no gain and all that :)

With some luck i will hunt a bike down and join you.

Good news that Mark!

Have you thought about what you're gonna replace the SV with?

It was always between R6 and ZX6R, but the kwak just seems that more practical a bike(fuel consumption and all that). I know that sort of stuff shouldn't come into buying a sports bike but hey ho.

I like the new model ZX6R....i cant decide if i buy new or not though. Having looked at them before i didnt like the old shape, but that turns out to be pre-2002. So im not ruling out an older model(2003/4) bike either if i find the right one.

I have done an online quote with CN and it seems a good insurance price...of course i will ring around and get it lower :)

When i talked to the doctor and asked about riding he swore at me...it doesn't sound promising but a slim hope is better than none.

Am moving to Maidenhead (Cox Green) at the end of this month. If you guys go out for a meet at somepoint during August I would love to join you.

It looks like the weekend has come to soon as my doc flaked on the appointment. Hopefully i will get some idea before johnwest(i much prefer that username and all the related fish jokes) moves to the area. Soon we can demand our own section and not have to travel to box hill in the early hours :D

Oh and Nick you might be interested to know im off to view a kwak 636 in a few days time, so i might have a bike even if i cant ride it.

Nice one Mark, was gonna say that Infinity were doing the ZX6R for £5999 with 0% finance over three years but had a look around and you can get it for around £5800 OTR with the finance elsewhere.. Damn good price for that bike. I was there at the open day and had to leave or I would maybe have traded again, the salesman sensed I was cracking! Love that orange!

Will defo be trying to arrange something in August KnightRider..

How about a Thames Valley area... or would that be too broad?

So anyone still interested in this Sunday? Should have my bike back up and running after I replace a gasket some time tomorrow..
