No worries Kev, was a great day out and good to meet up and go for a blast – if you didn’t take off you wasn’t going fast enough! Lol it certainly shocked me when I realised that I had NO rubber on the tarmac! The expression on Dave and Bruce’s faces also meant they shared our experience ha ha I’ve subsequently found out it was a French bank holiday this weekend, coupled with the awesome weather no wonder the coast roads were so busy! But good to get out and explore all the same. Next time, we will head east to French / Belgium border for some proper twisties and quiet roads. If you liked yesterday you will love that…. I didn’t take many pics yesterday, so get them up fellas….
what an awesome day out thanks guys for making a stranger feel welcome thanks to jimbo for the organisation bruce for leading the way and dave for making sure eveyone was sort of kept together barring one dave have tried to pm you but your inbox is full was great to meet all the guys cant wait for the next one
I am deffo up for that - already prepped the missus! I'd be up for the ring and the black forest as well .....
Next time, we will head east to French / Belgium border for some proper twisties and quiet roads. If you liked yesterday you will love that… This was my Euro cherry too Kev and my first ride out with my Blade ever, i loved every minute although i was a lot slower than virtually al of you. I'd love to go again but need a lot of notice, if i slowed any one up and spoiled the day slightly i,m truly sorry but i will speed up as i ride my bike a lot more from now on. Losing 3 1/2 stone of useless fat has totally changed the way i feel on my bike, with another two to go i should be on top of the world; we will see. I have Vino to thank for this. For me this was a thoroughly enjoyable day.
Next time me and Al WILL come! Please someone plan another trip soon!! Sounds like you had a great time, gutted we missed it!
Gazza - glad you enjoyed it mate, like I said, me Bruce and Dave are always out, so let us know if you ever fancy a ride out pal. Kev - that's the spirit!! Euro riding is like pringles, and you just popped... Seriously though, head a little further south and it gets sooooo good. Gums - dont be daft mate, you got nothing to worry about... And those cans sounded wicked!! And keep up the diet, if it's getting you more bike time then that ain't bad ey Villan - watch this space... Lol
I'll deffo come for a rideout. Been to Normandy and Belgium for fantastic roads. Not many in the Pas de Calais???
Gums, Like Jimbo said don't be daft, glad you enjoyed it. Good riding, awesome company fuck mega those snails were awesome! I'm off to polish my bike
Cheers DV, knew I’d forgotten something when we got home at 11pm Sunday night! Lol I won’t be able to sleep knowing the bike is all dirty in the garage….
Easy - im growing quite fond of her already i'll have you know. poor old girl.... and you should see the state of the blade!! lol
I left you a comment in the what did you do to bike today thread ! read it and take action young man !! And don't worry I am only playing with you, I am quite fond of the R1 as well she seems to be doing you proud and behaving herself implicitly
Those of you that so kindly suggested my chain could do with a little chlean will be pleased to hear I've just taken delivery of a Muc-Off Chain Doc & will have it sparkling in the very near future. Good call
