We're not going to get many more evening rides in this year, so here goes:
Meet at The Grasshopper Inn, Moorhouse, Nr Westerham, TN16 2EU.
(Please note NOT The Grasshopper IN Westerham!)
Depart 1815
Return about 3 hours later for swift drink (but not necessarily at The Grasshopper).
All welcome, but please indicate if you are interested.
STW of course! _________________ So many roads, so little time. |

So glad I chose to do this great roads great company alas at our break stop the sky darkened with rain clouds which made for poor visibility through a bad choice of visor and drizzle then made it even worse and so I opted to depart the others early.
this was the first time out in the wet on the falco and a learning curve of trust cant say im 100% there with it yet but its getting there and im loving the fact it prefers being ridden into the corners ......drizzle and greasy roads didnt inspire confidence but theres a large margin of that criticism in my head and I need to get round it. All in all another great Jimbo run.....cheers guys _________________ Rust is lighter than carbon fibre! |

Good to see you Pete, and so glad I got to buy you a birthday drink, even if it was only a Tango! Looking better and better on the Falco. How many miles per litre of oil you getting now?
Pity about the drizzle, but we haven't done bad recently. I thought Bob was flashing me all night with his faulty side light. You lead all the runs until you get it fixed! At least the roads will be smoother .
All in all a good evening . _________________ So many roads, so little time. |

Another good evening run Jim - thanks - bit bumpy.
Nice to see the "Birthday Boy" Pete mastering his new steed.
Bit of rain at the end did little to dampen the fun. _________________ "Those who understand compound interest are destined to collect it.
