kate1 Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I might give this a go if assuming it doesn't rain, its further than i've done before but i guess i'll have to get used to having a sore ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigup Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 il try and make it guys, will have to see what the family's plans are closer to the time I might give this a go if assuming it doesn't rain, its further than i've done before but i guess i'll have to get used to having a sore ass. make sure you get some ear plugs!i did cat and fiddle a few weeks ago for the first time (on my cbr125), came home my ears were ringing!

Korben Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 (edited) Right then!!! Me and TC have been talking and decided to have 2 rideouts on the same day both meeting at the C&F at the same time..... This is gonna be a nightmare for me and him!!! TC will be taking charge of his side of the country, and I will be taking on my side of the country. If we get enough interest from down south then we might want someone to take control of that as well and create a 3rd rideout meeting at the C&F. Those from ooooop North can join either my rideout or TC's.Newbies and 125'ers.... Please don't be put off. We were all in your situation at some point. I only met this bunch on my first rideout at the end of April when I had only just got my bike. I never felt pressured to ride fast, and was made to feel incredibly welcome. You will have a great time!! Edited August 26, 2008 by Korben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
