I asked directions at that harley dealers when I got lost around there.....lovely roads, could be tempted if the weather looks ok.

Just checked weather and the light rain is meant to be on saturday night. I reckon that'll change later on in the week.
I personally am not too bothered.
Recently went out on NW4 in damp/wet conditions on the Sunday Morning and had a blast. Felt so confident and found myself at the front and marking junctions twice. The previous day in the dry I didnt get near the front. Maybe 5th max?

Come on G. It's a Ho**a, it's designed to get wet and NOT rust.

I'm not designed to get wet

j/k

In all seriousness when I say the weather being ok, I mean providing its not just heavy rain all day constantly. If its light drizzle or occasional heavy downpour I dont mind

riding in the wet I dont mind, getting soaked all day I do

Fanks Skip haha
I will be taking it easy on on Sunday as I will have my Lady on the back for just the second time so she's still a wee bit scared.

That reminds me. If there is the need I would like to be TEC for the day.

We may have a few Dukes along for company.

I did ask BBD's permission before posting it on their site.
