Bugger. First Friday I'm free in a long while and it's forecast as 'severe gales' and driving rain over the southeast. So probably not.

And I like Nandos.

Seems like an anti 4 week this week so I think I'll give it a miss. Maybe we'll have to start an "In Line 4 Massive" all of our own and meet somewhere where all bikes are welcome.

No matter what the weather, myself and my IL4 (or V-twin if I can get to the f*****' keys first), will be headed north up the A1 on Friday evening, and sadly this means that I won't be in Soho this week.


Next time though..........

Getting a complex Steve? Perhaps getting a new bike makes you a bit more sensitive

Cheers Mark.

Steve, you seem to know rather a lot about Nandos. You didn't copy that from the web by any chance did you?

Don't be so sensitive - we are (hopefully) more than 'just' an SV650 gathering now ... bring your pristine, glossy, pocket-rocket and we can all point at scooters and laugh!

Let's hope the weather gets its act together - I don't relish standing around in damp waterproofs for hours ...

Not getting sensitive, it just seems that not having a twin is not acceptable in some parts. No wish to dwell on the point, and I'm going out on the **** anyway.

Remember it's not the Soho SV Massive, it's simply the Soho Massive so any bike is acceptable (except scooters!) as you well know Steve - you're just getting your leg pulled a little (as does everyone else from time to time).

Wots not acceptable is becoming a rain-wus.

So come on in, the water's fine!
