Mayday - What did you do??

Done my first mayday run to Hastings yesterday...

Sunday was spent giving the SV its summer clean, all gunk and oil and nasty stuff cleaned and removed from under the bike (round the stand etc), chain clean, paint polished (whats left ), engine cleaned, framework metal polished, wheels metal polished etc... (well, about 5 hours) I knew it was meant to rain yesterday but it needed a proper decent clean badly....

So woke up at 8am monday, looked outside, clouds clouds and rain. Poo.. So we suited up and took a nice little ride down through the lanes to Locksbottom. Parked up for a little while (at which point the sun decided to come out) and decide to leave. I was parked on an uphill and lost balance when the missis jumped on and I went to pull away, doh, could not let myself drop it in front of all these people. A mear headbutt from the women on back and some straining kept the bike upright

So we headed down at a nice leisurly pace. I've done it before as a pillion, but never noticed HOW many people come out just to watch the bikes, groups of kids, teenagers, and adults parked all the way down the roads, covering every bridge, it was mad.

We stopped off every so often as we found we were catching the rain up, but eventually we made it to Hastings. Not a cloud in the sky, thousands and thousands of bikes. Lovley day.

Then took a nice chilled ride all the way home up the A21 then through Tonbridge and up to Brands Hatch.

All in all, superb day, looking forward to next years one...

PS.. Good points, didn't see one accident or biker pulled over all day!!!

Got a couple of pictures, will upload them later this week.

Got very very very drunk

Morning spent sleeping off the excess of alcohol consumed on Sunday, then had to cut up and dump old garage door. Had a lucky escape with the angle grinder. I pulled it out of the socket stretching the cable, so put it down and went and plugged it back in.

Doh I had forgot to turn the bloody thing off, as it fell off the wall I left it on and landed about 3" from my hand as I was bent down trying to pull the plug back out.

Saturday:
Went out for a what was meant to be a half hour blast for two hours.
Stopped in a BPS Langar for a cuppa and sausage sarney. Talking to one of the skydivers about bikes (he had an old Guzzi). Watched some skydivers land, still have no desire to hurl myself out of an aeroplane again.

Gave the cage a good clean inside and out.
Drank some beer.

Sunday:
Good ride out to Mallory across the backroads.
Good racing too, shame did not get the second minitwins and sidecar race in as time ran out (no racing after 6pm on sunday at Mallory) because 3 or 4 races where stopped because of accidents.
Good ride home across backroads.
Drank some beer.

Monday:
Farted about all day trying to mend an old inspection lamp.
Had the company of a stunned parrot in the garden as the silly bugger flew straight into the side of the house. Gave him some peanuts and some water and he stayed in the garden for a couple of hour while he recovered from his crash.

Drank some beer

went into Winchester, did a bit of culture and a bit of shopping. late afternoon early evening rustled up my second BBQ of the weekend
