I'm just starting to imagine how my bike will look like Tent, sleeping matt, waterproofs on rack, sleepingbag (back seat), + tankbag.
Anyway, I'm stuck at work till 3, I hope to be on the road by 5pm.

Safe journey everyone and see you at the camp site

As some of you lot seen when I tried to get on my bike at the first stop my knee gave way unexpectedly and then I hit the deck this was the end of my rideout.
I sat around on Saturday trying to walk it off with stewies help thanks for the support I owe you a pint or 2 and thanks to one of the Glaswegian girls for providing pain killers.
It looks like I may be off my bike for quite some time as i currently cant stant up I will be having surgery on Wednesday which means I miss my holiday to the Valencia Grand Prix which I now have £750 worth of tickets I can’t use or sell.
On a positive not the weather did stay dry for the Saturday!.


I will keep you informed of how the surgery goes.

Cheers Northwind

Sorry to hear about your knee Shadow, but more importantly I am glad your ok. To an extent, at least.

To add to your woes I will not say how great, grand and brilliant the run was, as I am not very tactful.

I had a safe trip home from the massacre, and got onto the sofa, just as the moto gp started the parade lap.

Massive respect to Northy, and everyone else who helped out behind the scences.

Morning All, Thanks for Saturaday and Sorry if I ****ed anyone off with my battery problem (big thanks to Suicide Sam would have ****ed more people if you hadn't had jumped the bike more than once), which I'll update you all on if anyone is interested (currently charging the life off it now).

Sorry I couldn't stay on Saturday night , looked as the though I was gonnae be a good night. I'll definately stay next time if allowed.

Damage to the bike was very minimal after being at **** at the very first bend, larry the lamb has got a lot to answer for!!! just the ego shattered!!!
