Remy Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Had a great ride out with Cat and Alan yesterday, we went to the cafe at Quatt, where my bike died and Alan had to bump start it (lucky the drive is on a sharp camber!), then over the Long Mynd and back via some country roads. Think Cat needed her drinks and fags after the descent off the Mynd Only a few spots of rain so no bus shelters needed!Hope you all had a great night Looking forward to another Wales rideout today (hope my bike starts!).http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y184/greydales/Motorbikes/P1080645.jpghttp://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y184/greydales/Motorbikes/P1080648.jpghttp://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y184/greydales/Motorbikes/P1080647.jpghttp://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y184/greydales/Motorbikes/P1080646.jpg

Susieque Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 Well everyone has now left and making their way back to their respective parts of the country. The weather has been kind - albeit a bit chilly. Just started to rain here so I hope people don't get too wet on their journeys.We've had a great weekend, so thanks to everyone for coming along
littlecat Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 home, un packed and the bike safely away in the garage.Thanks for a brilliant weekend guys ... random and bizarre pics to follow when i find the camera lol
TC Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Top weekend unless you're a Tyrannosaurus rex Thanks Ian and Sue for brilliant host's
Susieque Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 Glad to hear that folk have got back home safely - we haven't done anything to put the house back to normal yet!! I'd love to see everyone's photos of the weekend in here please!
Susieque Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 Oh and Megawatt, you left your airbed pump here - we'll bring it to the Rally.
Jixerman Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Checking in. Back home but not without incident This whole biking as a couple thing ain't off to the best of starts and is in the balance at the moment. Top weekend though Was good to see you allThanks Sue and Ian for opening up your home to us
Susieque Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 You're welcome John - glad you're home safely More problems on the way home????
Jixerman Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Eventful journey home Sue. Ended up in Shrewsbury. Don't ask me how O_o Chucked the missus off the bike AGAIN!!! in Kidderminster. Some moron on the roundabout by MacDonalds changed his mind and didn't want the turning he was indicating to use and swung his wheels to continue on round. I grabbed a handful of brake and went to put my left foot down.Trouble was it was straight onto a the biggest manhole cover in the world. The ones with the two triangular plates. My foot slipped, off we tumbled and Karen bashed her ribs on the kerb.We are now waiting to see if they are bruised or broken. Doc says if the pain eases over the next couple of days they are bruised, but if they are broke it will get a whole lot worse
Susieque Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 Yes, just seen what you posted on FB - what rotten luck!! Hope Karen is just bruised - can imagine she might be reluctant to get back on the bike in a hurry!!
techno Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Sorry to hear of that john!Had a great weekend have to say glad i didnt need a tent tho
megawatt Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) I left Ians at 1330 and got home about 1900! Took the A roads to the M5/M42 junction to avoid the usual crap at Birmingham. Just unloaded the bike and car and finally having a sitdown. Was a fantastic weekend thanks to Sue and Ian. Brilliant company with the usual entertainment provided by TC, Jorbandit and especially Gary. That T Rex story almost stopped me breathing. Great to meet Spanky and his good lady, the single malt was superb. I left my spare Blade battery at Gills Ian, so I'm hoping she can dropped it at yours and bring it and the airpump to Winster, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeze? Anyway a few pix, mainly our rideouts. Brilliant weather and great company.The view from Long Mynd http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/megawattblade/IMAG0471.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/megawattblade/IMAG0472.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/megawattblade/IMAG0473.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/megawattblade/IMAG0474.jpgBala lake car park.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/megawattblade/IMAG0483.jpgPonderosahttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/megawattblade/IMAG0486.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/megawattblade/IMAG0487.jpgGot some nice ones at the waterfall as well, more to come!
