Wasn't there a plan for a peak district residential at one point?

I had a hunt through the first 4 pages or so of the madlanders, and didn't find much.

G had an interesting moment when we tried to line up for the photoshoot- his rear tyre spun up and slid sideways meaning the bike started to fall, luckily he held it and we managed to get it upright again without any damage!

Yup, pretty much like that lol, could have easily landed on one of the wooden posts either side so was lucky really.

I know had already pretty much arranged for the 021's at the time though.

Need to do a few more miles on them and see, they seem to grip alright but the attachment and feel is not there, to be honest they are not even wearing that well cant see them lasting that long....no where near the 5k - 8k that people say they get

Here's a few pics from yesterday;

Binky's, TonyS's and my bike at Derwent reservoir;



Mmmm. dity bike;



Me lunge;



Binky lunge;



L-R Binky, Dave20046, TonyS, Andybran and G.



All in all a bl00dy good day out. Once we got out of Matlock and the sun started shining it was tremendous. Until we got to the Snake Pass we took it pretty steady but then let rip a little after that . I've no idea where we went between then end of the Snake and Ashbourne but there were some cracking roads

Thanks for organising Binky, I'll definitely make the effort to attend 'Binky's Revenge'

Nice pics. I want your bike carty, is it the thou or a 750?
Don't know why I look so unhinged on that photo!
