    I've had my 'apparently' awesome fire blade for two years now, but I only realised how much so, on my trip to Spain on it last year ;)

    Tell ya, the person who designed Spanish roads was Defo a biker, and I bet the fcuker owned a fireblade to boot :D

    Suggested we meet up once a month Craig. That's a given in the summer when out on bikes, just a get us through the winter thing.

    Hope you op goes ok mate, I'll be along to pick the hernia up in the afternoon, sure Steve will have it for his tea, medium rare with a hint of Rouqfort sauce.

    Proper fine dining :)

    Well, considering it was supposed to be a night of chatting about the forthcoming Spain Trip, I'm not sure we made much progress! It was still a great night again, as is the custom when us Northerners get together.
    Shame Craig couldn't make it. Steaks all round I think, not bad food.
    Here's the one and only pic that was taken last night

    As well as bumping this up & hoping Steves Not going to be stuck on a roof all his life & update the first page?

    It's the month to confirm the ferry.

    70 days before the Bay of Biscay.
    Of course, other tours of Spain will already have been & returned by the times we go ;)

    Ps - need to pick your brains about a couple of the must do roads lol
