Nice one Mr Fisty. Thumbs Up

, they sure will come in handy. are they the hand held type or can they be worn inside your motorcycle helmet ?

It's a shame you can't make it (but at least you have one outing under your belt Thumbs Up

), I'm in a similar situation where the weather is going to dictate my movements. bloody monsoon season!

how's the bike going ? any thoughts of upgrading ?

all the best,
flat Eric.

Does anyone have any idea what time we'll be back? I'm watching a bike on ebay and it finishes at about 4:30pm. No problem if we're not back by then, I'll get someone to bid on it for me, just sort of wondering is all!

I'm really looking forward to this now!

Just incase anyone is expecting to find me on a KLR600, I sold it a while ago and I'm on an XJ600 now Thumbs Up

Well here I am stuck at work and your all off on your jolly! *sigh* Yes eric the walkie talkies are the ones you can use under a helmet with a push to talk button, Ive used them at 100+ mph (on a private road honest officer) and they were excellent. Me and Mr_z used them on the last ride out.

Have Fun Everyone xxxxxxxxxx

Awww Im gutted I didnt get organised enough for today, again!

Managed to get out 3 days on the trot this week too, just getting back the feel for my bike ready for today. Sold the battered one yesterday and couldnt second guess if I should ask the sitter or not, then left it too late as she'd made other plans!

Please have another meet this month! 3rd time lucky n all that Wink

What an eventful day we've had. 1st part went ok, we all met up at the correct places and were happily riding up to the Ponderosa cafe, up on the horseshoe pass. when we came across an accident involving a bike and a car. someone was with the rider who was on the floor (suspected broken arm), whilst we directed the traffic around the scene, safely of course.

once the ambulance arrived, they looked after the rider. shortly after the police arrived and the helicopter arrived.

rider safely off to hospital (thoughts with him for speedy recovery)

anyway here are some pictures that i took. stunning views in wales. and the others will tell you how impressive the roads are.

Wooo! Just made it home after riding on the A roads for about 4 hours to get home - aching all over!

Was a great day, thanks to everyone that helped organise it, and everyone that attended.

Thanks to the guys that helped me when my gears jammed... then came and chased after me when I went the wrong way trying to catch up Embarassed

Cheers Ben for showing me and my dad the way home, and to GixaJane and -insert name here- for being traffic coppers at that Busa crash (if anyone finds any updates on that guy, please do share Very Happy

)

So yeah, in all, a good day out - ta!

Thanks guys and gals for a great day, eventful ummmmmm

Flimbar and I set off from Bassetts at 08:00, pulled into an Esso garage for a fill up and toilet stop...........no flamin toilet had to use natures garden phew relief, rang flat eric from there and asked him if he was coming out to play Razz

, we met him along the road then rode to Macdonalds to meet up with the rest of the crew.

Brilliant roads really enjoyed the ride today, big up to Truslac jr on his 50 he rode brilliant Thumbs Up

Hope the guy who was involved in the accident isn't too bad and gets well soon, his bike was a total write off but that can be sorted.

Don't it just bring out the plonkers at times like that I'm referring to the total idiot on the bike who wouldn't stop, he had to ride straight the accident Thumbs Down

duuuur

I didn't realise Wales was so beautiful looking forward to another visit soon.

Mr G, DON'T YOU DARE! you know what I'm referring to - my dinner

Thanks to Flimbar for pointing me in the right direction on the way home but!!!!!!!!!!!!!I ended up in Birmingham!!! doh I missed the turning playing with a blue sports car, well it would have been rude not to lol

Cleaned and polished the gixa so I could put my Ponderosa dragon on the bike.

F/E don't worry about that little scratch you'll soon have it sorted, I know how you like your babe to be perfect.

I'll put my piccy's on tomorrow.
