(from North East)Bimble is good.....no one is under any illusions that there's gonna be extreme knee-down action.......nice gentle potter around the few decent roads around here......which they have hopefully not top-dressed in the meantime......

BikerMooFromMars Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Ok, so I just went outside to look for the b*stard ice cream van (that seems to play its jingle and never arrive!!), and not only does Roger live on the same road as me - but he's only bloody 10 houses away, just seen the bikey outside!!! Did plan on getting you a Cornetto and popping round with it, but complaints in writing to Mister bloody Whippy who is only out to torment me!!!!!!!! He's literally come down our road once this year! But anyhoo - what a lovely bimble that was! I was actually really on edge on my way to the Marina because it's the first day I've not worn earphones listening to music quietly - had completely forgotton how bloody loud it is in my helmet without em! But of course completely fine after when out with the crew .Great practice for Norfolk, I will just imagine Bob's in front of me and Mandy and co are behind me for maximum chilled biking! . Was lovely to meet Rhiannon after hearing so much about her, and Roger. Can't believe you're moooving away next week, sod's law!See you guys Tuesday I hope PS - totally calling my bike Ermintrude now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Yeah....nice ride out today.....just a shame that they had top dressed almost every bend for the first 3-4 miles.......but OK after that...... Nice to meet rogwigi57.....hopefully you'll be around for any future runs.......just keep an eye on the Rideout section...... And I think Ermintrude is a great name for the bike Moo.....

I've got a feeling cow bike names might be my new thing!! We'll see...Yeah would be great to have more people on our little outings, and hopefully before the end of the year Ollie and I will have new bikeys and our full licenses. Love the colour of Roger's bike- icy blue v nice. Shame Ollie was thrre, he'd have had a little drool I'm sure !First time I've ever had to ride on w*nky gravelly poor excuse for a road resurfacing! Good to have done it so I won't be as baffled in the future!Btw that lady who supplied us with tea was awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nman1 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Glad you had a good ride out folks, could not make this one, had an appointment with a pint and a game of cards down the pub. Came home with £14 more than what I went in with. Well pleased.Think it might be a tad damp for Tuesdays meet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
