|

I have a pass and weather seems ok.
Anyone about for a rideout?
Be good if we can meet Westerham way (Grasshopper etc) but will meet at BH if required.
Maybe head down to Wessons then up to BH and home but i'm up for suggestions?
Cheers

I'm relaxed timing wise and will follow the crowd. You tell me where and when suits and I'll see you there...
I have a sat nav so can meet you anywhere you have a post code. If you didn't want to ride to Boxhill (or wherever) alone I'll come and pick you up from where you feel comfortable.

If he doesn't have a hangover Bob and I are going to meet at 0900 at the Esso garage at Pratts Bottom.
You could meet us there and then we could head over to meet N at Lingfield?
Then on Wessons maybe? _________________ So many roads, so little time. |

Jimbo/Megawatt/Lost - Thx for a top ride.
The roads were a little tricky at times especially not being able to see due to low sun but it was good fun to meet up with the secb crew too.
Will post a little video later once i have had some nose bag and washed the bike.
Cheers

Thanks for the company Neil (thanks for the refreshments too, another one I owe you) , and good to meet a few from SECB @ Wessons, including Lost.
Yes, was a bit in places, low sun, wet leaves, cold, mist! It couldn't have been better . Absolutely beautiful once the sun warmed everything up.
Sorry not to see you Naomi, but with the conditions it was definitely wise not to come out with your head not right. Hope you're feeling better now Bob. It would have been very interesting to see how you handled the power of your bike in those conditions, maybe a bit like Casey Stoner?
Oh, and just a heads up everyone, never, ever ask Neil what the time is! It could be any one of a number of different answers depending on what device he looks at first _________________ So many roads, so little time. |

Didn't see you guys coming the other way at Ide Hill but blink and you would have missed us

I was too busy making sure I carried on going the way I was supposed to without seeing who was coming the other way! _________________ So many roads, so little time. |

That's why you go out at 0900 SPDB, or whatever you're called these days .
Amazing how you keep your head so still Neil. All the helmet camera footage I've seen so far has made me feel queezy!
Some of the roads looked dry, and they were quite the opposite.
Great vid Neil, thanks. _________________ So many roads, so little time.
