Considering the Times are proclaiming on their front page:
10 days of rainfall in 24hours.
I just know that when we finish the ride out the heavens will open for my 1 and a half hour ride home. Bring it on!! Haha

Sneak round and pinch Neio's. It could do with being ridden properly for once!

Yes I'm up at this ungodly hour eager with anticipation. Whatever happened to Sunday lie-ins?

fog just gave me a brown trouser moment. Roundabout on a dual carriageway appeared out of the fog!!! Just managed to stop in time but still ran onto the roundabout. Good job nothing else was on the road. Well cos of the fog I'm 1/2 and hour early I had to abandon the twisty route as I could see bugger all. Pete n lissa should be here soon. Can't wait to get to your sunshine skip.

Blimey that was a long ride home....










....From Grafham Waters.

Allot more people turned up then I personally anticipated and it made the ride even more enjoyable. The new guys were great, the old guys were great, everyone was great.

The roads we went on were great! I had a ball of a time towards the front of the pack.

I have to say that even though we didn't stick to the planned route it did make it more interesting. even when we did go up and down the same bit of road 3 times. You did a great job skip!

Oh and if anyone says anything about me going into a corner a little bit too hot and maybe using a bit of grass, and then needing several people to push me out then there lieing.

Shame BigbadDad had to run off so early because of his slight leak in the rear tyre. I hope it's fixable.

Roll on the next one.

Im back home now. Had a blast today. throughly enjoyed every corner.
Oh and when seggons says a 'little' too hot he means...lots.
Only joking seggons I think you came out very well considering what could have happened.

All in all a top day. Skip did a fantastic job...of getting us lost. But it was just to get us to practice our U-turns you know.

Cheers Skip for planning the route and being ok with a couple of changes. Really helped a few of us out.

Hope everyone else had a good day?
