03-03-60 ? I'll be 100 then. Perhaps we should organise a meet then. Well, it can't hurt to plan ahead ........................

You, me and every other forum member, Matey.

I was thinking of popping up to Liverpool on Day 10 and tagging along for the final bit. But the weather forecast says it'll be a bit nippy. Best stay at home on the 360 with COD6 then ............. But Good Luck to the plucky fella.

Looks like he's started though (what a hardy soul). http://www.roundthecoastforcancer.co.uk/

You must be expecting a MAJOR thaw, matey.

How lovely to put faces to names. Some lovely (The Ladies), some not so lovely (The Gentlemen). And thank you for making an elderly gentleman welcome. A few more additions to store in my Motorcycling Memory Bank. Cold. Waiting for Mince Pies. Mince Pies !! The smell of coal fires. Cow Shit right on my line as I come round a tight bend. Cold. Low Sun TMBF Key Ring !! Let's hope that next time I attend a meeting, the most often heard phrase will be "Phew! Isn't it hot!" Cheers Boys and Girls.

If you have no joy with "proper" boots then get down to an Ex Army store and pick up some paratrooper boots for about £25 - £35 which will do as a stop gap. I have a pair which means I'm free to take my time in finding a comfy pair of biking boots.

Weather forecast for 30th is severe blizzards !!

Tricky enough in the dry but a bit of damp makes it even more challenging. Better luck next time.

It was very windy oop north! I took a trip to Warrington/Runcorn up the A41 and from Whitchurch upwards I was like a bloomin Kite !! Hope you guys didn't get Blown too much (oooo-eeerrrrrr).

I think it's based on the assumption that you are probably the one that's gonna come off worst in a prang so it's a risk you accept. Just don't mention it to the government or there'll be week long intensive CBT's @ £1000 a pop !!

I like getting a nod. I imagine us to be Gentlemen of the road, discretely bowing to each other in acknowledgment of our superiority over car drivers. If you see me out and about, "Gizza Nod!" http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/chipito/Nod.jpg

Ahhh.... That explains all the bikes I saw heading south on the M5 on Sunday morning.

The counterpart (paper) shows your provisional entitlement. The plastic card (nearly an ID card) shows your actual entitlement (tests passed etc.).

Bummer. Just passeed my DAS 2 today and was well chuffed but I can imagine the dissappointment if the examiner starts the debrief with "I'm sorry to tell you ..." Good luck with the next one.
