    Reckon anyone turning up on a blade should have their breakfast (or at least a coffee) bought for them by those in cars!

    Great morning /early afternoon with the boys and a decent turn out Al managed to get his old arse down on the blade to win his breakfast and top marks for that .More to follow no doubt.

    Home via the Cat and Fiddle, bike washed and polished (as best as is possible with gaffer tape fairings) and ready for the 'shakedown' test at oulton in 2 weeks time.

    It fell off padock stand onto side but nothing shows!

    Would be a great place for a dyno power run / shoot out but few willing to go head with my bike for fear of my shed making most power!

    So after leaving (and getting lost in housing estate due to one way street lol) I ended up in Knutsford and spotted this

    [​IMG]

    Weather was good, roads dry so headed up to Cat and Fiddle - loads and loads of water running off hills / snow banks so steady progress - tyres / suspension feel all wrong - need to check and re-set to standard one evening.

    Did not get any pics at Cat but here are a couple on way down

    The white balance looks all wrong in a lot of them - very blue tint - sure could correct in Photoplus but CBA!

    THanks to Giv for the breakfast - thought at least one other rider would turn up on a bike given wall to wall sunshine.

    Really good clothing department - very tempted by the RST textiles for touring about in - looked decent enough, waterproof with vents to open so you don't boil in the bag on a hot day. - think just about 370 for the set.

    Good evening guys and girls,
    First off, a cracking Breakfast meet for the Northwest Chapter today, I'm sure everyone who attended will join me in thanking Givover for arranging it!

    Secondly a big up to all the folk that turned up to make it happen.

    And thirdly a big up to the guy with the big bollocks who actually took the time to turn up on his bike.
    All will be revealed soon.

    So here's my slant on things hope you enjoy the photo's? Sorry no time was taken between shots, the images will confirm this.

    Enjoy.

    So I left home at 08.15 and headed off to meet thefirebloke and went on to Millennium motorcycles where we landed bang on 10.00, on entering the showroom I start random shots.

    I must get one of these. Makes it look like I could pull a wheelie.

    Tucked out of the way? Probably the best place for it!

    One of them err?

    Enter the boys toys room.

    Anyway. We finally decide to head for breakfast and hopefully find the other members.
    There's only the four of us so far.
    Let's get some breakfast.

    Well, Well, what do you know, Giv and Craig have found the breakfast already.
