As it seems a few of us will be going, we`ve normally met up with each other at 12.00noon just inside the entrance. Anyone up for doing the same this year ????

Good thinking batman, I`ll get some of that at the BMF

I know this must have been asked many times but has any one ever brought waterproofs that don`t leak at the croch. I am now sitting here with wet shreddies and it ain`t nice. I have the Richa ones. Am going to the BMF in a few weeks time so if I have some pointers I`ll look out for them. Ta

I`m pretty sure BBlions has this set, check with him how he`s got on with them.

and no your not stupid, just couldn`t find another smiley that agrees with you . I think the plan is me and GOG will be riding up together.

Sorry Bob, didn`t make it this week. Bit sick of getting wet and having to dry kit off so even though it turned out pretty dry, I thought I`d wait while the real nice weather gets here. Hopefully soon be getting some rides out....Sunny Hunny maybe.

I`ll check nearer the time on the weather, if looks OK, I`ll be up for this. Cheers Ian for the reminder.

Much as I enjoy dossing down in a tent once in a while, I think with the bed being only 18 miles away I`ll just meet up with you peeps on one of the days

Wait until the better weather kicks in mate and take a ride over. Come the Abbotts Ripton way for a good road ride. We`re a friendly bunch

As said above, if textiles you have are OK then stick with them. Some leathers have perforated panels to allow a bit of air flow, so in warm to hot weather this is a great coolant when riding. Check out RST gear, they are reasonably priced and good kit. I personally prefer leather, as I was told, when setting out on my biking adveture, that it gave better abrassion resistance. This coming from my cousin who`d had an off and suffered some pretty bad road rash. I do have a textile jacket (Richa Rix-2) but to be honest, it`s crap at keeping out the rain.

You lucky sods, looks great. Just wish I had the balls to do those long runs you said you`d be doing. I`ll do it one day though...I hope. Glad you had a great time

Cheers Susie, I`ll beare that in mind. Crap weather here though for the next few days so I`m going straight home from work.

Feck me C the Bear, if you need a tent to cover ya whotsits, bloody good luck to ya. Seriously, sounds like a good deal. I`ll be nipping over to me local aldi next weekend.

Sorry to read Ohjay, be there for his family if you can

FFS mate, not good to read. Obviously don`t know the bloke but my heartfelt feelings go to him and his young family. I`ve seen what cancer does. I`m damn sure it will be hard, but try and keep a smile on when you visit him and his wife.

Did not make it due to working late. By the time I`d had me tea and cleared up I thought feck it and sat and had a cuppa instead. Dropped from dominos as well so no beer either

Not sure at the moment Bob, will see what weather is like.

Said it in the other thread, but yep, great to meet up again folks and looking forward tothe next meet. Oi Dave... I aint from feckin Lundun I`m East Anglian

Great ride up there and good to see some old pals and meet some new ones. Managed to get home just before it started pissing down and sank a couple of pints before closing time. Hope to meet up again soon.

Let us know Ian. I normally go on the Sunday, the stalls knock the stuff out a bit cheaper cus they want rid of it.

Just came into the office to see if still on , glad to see it is. May get a little damp though (most of gear still damp from last weeks rain ) but not to worry. Looking forward to meeting up.

I`m on the list in the Cambs section but I`ll add to this as well. Looking forward to seeing you all. TC Stu (weather dependant) Bonniebird ? Tango ? Devans - work dependent Royblandit Pinky UK190 (without kids) Rach (without caravan) GOG Littlecat mojobanana Suzilew Nman1

Sounds like a deal there Rik. Now all you need is the weather to be able to wear em

See you there 10.30 marina.

I`ll see on the day Bob, may have had a heavy weekend
