Right, today was bloody freezing, just incase you didnt already know. Wink

Anyway I set of to meet andy13_uk, Siggi, Paul, 18aprilia and Joe at Brighton for 11 AM. The ground was icy/slippery (it was early morning) and yep, you guessed it, I lost the front end whilst negotiating a roundabout nearing Brighton. Doh!

Only fairing on RH side damaged.

Picked the bike up and headed on to brighton. At Brighton everyone met up; Siggi, Joe, 18aprilia, andy13_uk, paul, two of pauls mates and me. Had a chat about stuff before heading to box hill.

Chatting;

Whilst on the way we stopped to fill up for petrol at a service station (on the A23?) and to have a chat.

Whilst we were at the station, 18aprilia tried to start up his bike...but it wasn't having any of it and wouldn't start. Mad

. Siggi tried pushing 18aprilia on the bike to get it bump started....and after a few tries it fired up. Thumbs Up

"Start damn it, start!"

We finally arrived at box hill and met up with tatters Dom. There was quite a few people there and lots of nice bikes, considering how cold it was, aswell as some sort of Mitsubishi Evo meet.

So it was quite a good day, lots of riding and getting to meet more BCF'ers. Thumbs Up

Oh yeah, on the way back from boxhill, just after we left I saw LukeVFR and his mate coming the opposite way, heading to boxhill. Doh!

Good pics!

Like the sv andy, always best in black. Very Happy

In one of those pictures, siggi looks about 9ft tall, standing beside the rs. Blardly hell. How tall are you?

Nice pics, gutted about the NSR though! Those crash bungs don't seem to have done anything!

Like the way you put the side stand down whilst it was on the floor Laughing

Apart from that, looks like a good ride Smile

LOL Nice try with your sig 18Ape Laughing

Can't see it lasting long....

Looks like a cool day out, shame about the NSR. Sad

Tell you what, I'm bloody glad I never got the RS125 I was comtemplating; they look too small for my comfort. You're right Siggi looks huge next to it! I see having a crafty Ciggi as well. Wink

craigs23 · Mr Muscle Joined: 08 Jun 2005 Karma :

True, but last time I said Hello, Siggi isn't exactly short.

Mind you, think all my bikes are on the small side for some weird reason.... Confused
