Default Short notice rideout!!!!

So i have Sunday 19th March (thats tomorrow) off work. Who's up for a rideout??? Weathers not going to be too bad, but its my day off so i don't care anyway.

I have no idea where this rideout will go, but it is my lil' bro's 12th birthday so maybe we could incorporate a flyby through Rochester for tea and biscuits and show him the bikes.

Sammy

Well, I voted for No- I'm working...

...Even though I'm not!

But I do wish you'd all stop riding your bikes for a while and making it so obvious in front of me!

I've got my right big toe in a heeee-uuuuuge bandage after having an operation to remove the toenail as it has been playing up since my toe was pretty much anihallated in my 'off' in November '04!

I'll just sit here in the house, unable to drive, unable to put a bike boot (or any form of shoe) on my right foot, thinking about the fact that I was supposed to be at Snetterton this weekend for the British Superbike test days!

Have fun all!

No it's too cold
I'm fiddling around putting the new 'bits' on mine, in between nipping back in doors to try & warm up

You're welcome to call into Toad Hall if passing

But of course I shall.

Post Edited:
Did have a route planned fromBox hill but apparently there's a big 'Blade meet there, now looking like leaving riverhead for about 12:30 for a short run, route tbc, but should incorporate te A264 from East Grinsted to Royal Tunbridge Wells and then some back roads to our pit stop. Depending on how we feel a route back wil be planned there.

Please PM Samnoshka by 11:20am if you need any further details

Well as I'm following a mate on the Pioneer run tomorrow,Starting at 8 am, that would normally be a no, However, as he will have either made it to Brighton or broken the bike beyond repair (well for that day anyway) by 12 ish, I could find myself available.

I'll give you a call in the morning Sam.

cheers Mark.

Must agree Dan, a great day, just what was needed to blow the cobwebs away, and for part of it the sun shone and it got warm (ish).

Thanks again to Sam for getting us all together, and to Rictus for actually knowing where to go

Anyway, some pics, just to prove that we had the bikes out, and that my bike looks cleaner with a bit of cold induced blur :P







Anyway, must be off. Have to put the linings back into these damn gloves .....

Thanks to all concerned, no sillyness on anyones part, and no unplanned incidents either.

Special thanks to Sam for the planning, destination & well apprisiated brew & burger stop.

(Oh and for the view )



And Here's my pics










Cheers Mark
