Well, we got the 8am ferry to Pompey rode up to the Ace Cafe, had a look about and the cooked breakfast, very nice. Not what I had expected, never been before, it looks bigger on the TV and internet. Just another one ticked off of our "to do" list Laughing
Then we headed off to Boxhill which we have done before, a good turnout although not as many as in the summer when we went but worth the ride out.

Nb, the breakfast was lovely I have to say. When my sis in law and myself first walked in to the Cafe we felt like we were walking onto a Hells Angels set but everything as you will know was so clean even the toilets, wasnt sure what to expect there Thumbs Up
On the ride back from Boxhill to Pompey I rode on the back of the KTM, plenty of grunt, sounded similar to riding on the back of Nicks old bike, the Strom after he had removed the baffles Very Happy

I think he has or at least had one, yeah. The parrot and pirate hat are usually a pretty good giveaway though!

Small world huh........ Wink

We had a good clear run to the Ace as far as til we actually got into London coming up from South but even then we never got held up at all. Then the run onto Boxhill after and back home again was fine too, plenty of chances to give the bikes a good run, blew a few cobwebs out Laughing Trying to think of some other regular bike meet cafes that not been to yet, any suggestions of what is down towards the west country as not been down that way yet ??

An absolute legend! I remember thoroughly enjoying his set at the NABD rally a couple of years back!

Ah memories! Very Happy

WOW I was at Box that day with the busa and that predator looking bike.....How exciting! Good pics! Must go up the Ace soon, not been there for a while. I remember that car in the middle was selling some lubricant.....Blu Flow or something. You can just see my bike behind the car its the Suzuki Bandit with the blue screen and white wheel trims.
