Sorry to hear about your misfortune Gmonsta, hope everything works out okay.

Hovis - Buy a bike cheaply enough on your credit card and then sell it when you come back. If you get it cheaply enough you could sell it on for profit! That is what I would look to do in your position. I too had electrical problems with an sv and lost all confidence in the bike. Shame really.

Let me know if I need to change anything...

8:15 CouerdeLion and Lurcher meet up at FerryBridge (Tim in Belgium too?)
(Dave, apologies I know it's early!)

10:45 M1 Newport Pagnell Services (Southbound) meet AndyAikido and K.
Leaving at 11:15

13:00 M20 Maidstone Services (Eastbound) meet Hovis, Zombie Jesus and Instigator. (Hovis and ZJ are coming from cardiff and along the M4 so you could arrange to meet Instigator so place after his start of Reading?)
Leaving at 13:30

14:15 Arrive Dover Ferry Terminal meet Mart

??? Calais Ferry Terminal meet GMonsta.


I've allowed 30 mins at the meeting points in case we are running late. Hopefully we won't be!
If you want to meet somewhere different let me know.
Yep I'll be meeting at Ferrybridge, will organise with Lurcher coming down freom Teesside.

Should we all PM Courdelion our mobile numbers, then he can PM a list of all of them to everyone in case of delays, breakdowns, flat mobiles etc ??

Yikes Zombie I guess it could have been a lot worse but I bet that doesn't make you feel much better about it.

If I were you, I would order a replacement from Suzuki asap and worry about getting the money off him later. You can always put the broken lever back on if you need to get it inspected by a garage.

Yep, so I've been looking at my past messages, think he asked for them early on (and probably where I got the idea from), he must be an organised type

I did ask for them from everyone except the lot who went last year, and i seem to have lost them so pm'd them all for those.

I don't really want to pm a list of numbers out. I think everyone has mine?

Just pm anyone else you're meeting who's number you haven't got.
I think I'm at most of the meet up points
