dragolith Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 The Hornet was fun, but I have a mans machine ready for some action now Quote
GarethNW Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Wish I did, hope I don't slow u guys down to much Quote
Guest Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 you'll be fine Gareth, a couple of years back, we ran with Matt on an SR125, me on a Bandit 6, and Dave on his CBR, we left Dave behind and had to wait for him.. Matt que to back me up here...in his defence, he'd not long got it after passing his test.. Quote
dragolith Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 Haha I remember that.It was on narrow country lanes and I was scared of dumping my baby! Quote
The Jade Mongoose Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 Well, weather looks half decent, so Andy and Simon i'll see you at mine just before 11. Dave, we'll come straight round yours, then down to Knott end for lunch at 12. See you there Gareth. My mobile is in Contacts section. Quote
GarethNW Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 I just looked in contacts and I dont have permision to view it!!! Anyone still around who can help? Quote
dragolith Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 I dont want to get my helmet wet actually...And I thought you were a fair weather rider too? Andrew says yes (but not if its p*ssing it down!) Its already started raining! Quote
dragolith Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Glad I came out in the end, wicked ride, cheers all! Quote
blakeatron Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Nice to meet you mate - was a good day, and didn't get wet! Quote
The Jade Mongoose Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Yeah, fantastic ride, nice breakfast at Knott End Cafe, and no rain!Going round the roundabout turning right just before the M6 on the way home I thought I heard something scraping on the ground, then I heard it again outside Asda turning right on the roundabout. Now I know i've lowered the bandit, and was riding 2 up, and was leaning over quite a long way, but I can't figure out if it was the exhaust or foot peg (both of which have marks on them), or mine or louises foot/knee. Anyway, may need to do a scientific experiment sometime which involves going round and round a roundabout with someone following me! Cheers all for a cracking day!Matt & Louise Quote
Guest Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 I think thats a definate do again ride out for another time, the A588 is a cracking piece of road with Glasson Dock and Knott end cafe, both biking meccas.. Growntree, glad you enjoyed the run, was nice to have a few more along rather than the usual suspects.. Gareth, glad you got my Number, thanks Rennie, Quote
GarethNW Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Yeah was nice to meet some of you today! Will do much more when I have a bigger bike, not that ill be any faster, ill just look better Quote
Guest Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 I think we could have done with someone to slow us down, I overcooked a corner/junction resulting in a banked over rear wheel slide on the brakes, and me and dragolith both got air.... awesome.. Not that i condone this sort of behaviour Quote
dragolith Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 You might not condone it, but I do, it was wicked fun! We have to do that run again. Quote
Guest Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 You might not condone it, but I do, it was wicked fun! We have to do that run again.yeah just for breakfast...... Quote
