I'll look out for you.

I'll be on my lady's baby blade - as I've just sold my bike, waiting for a new one in March.

I thought you might be talking about this kind of brass monkey. (My favourite blunt) Wink

I think I shall go unless I get up too late.

I've been considering it since Odie posted the thread in the Midlands forum, but I've been to the Vic before and wasn't fond of the whole 'Americana' theme. This would be the kind of thing I'd like to go to on the ratbike, but it's still nowhere near being on the road so I shall be on a very dirty Bros400.

I know what you mean about the vic, feel the same myself, rats do "liven" the harley owners up, they seem to thing that by parking near a rat their harley will become one! (just leave your bike with me for a while sir)Twisted Evil

Well I went. Saw a CBR400 complete with 'Fireblade' decals in the last group that arrived at the pub, don't know if that was Martin. Saw Odie's trike, but no Odie untill people were starting to set off for the run and you were talking to a few people so I thought I'd say hello after the run. But you didn't go back to the pub did you? Razz

Will post some pictures in a bit - There was a good turnout and some interesting bikes Thumbs Up

Yep, sounds like me - we didn't actually go on the run. But did set off back about that time. Good turnout - and it was great to get out on the bike.

Oh well, see you next time. BP maybe?

It was a pretty good turn out I think (though I haven't been before to compare).

This was probably helped by the relatively good weather.

Suzuki Katana - Very nice

One of several Buells - ZXR400er would be in love with that frame Razz

A very smart Ural combo

There were a few Nortons there - This one sounded a bit rough but obviously a ridden bike and not some museum relic Thumbs Up

https://homepage.ntlworld.com/steven.coy/images/bmonkey2006/brassmonkey-7.jpg
Odie's trike wasn't alone - Think these two were Suzukis

https://homepage.ntlworld.com/steven.coy/images/bmonkey2006/brassmonkey-8.jpg
A nice tarty BMW

https://homepage.ntlworld.com/steven.coy/images/bmonkey2006/brassmonkey-9.jpg
A good looking Moto-Guzzi - Shame about the ugly screen Confused

The only ratbike to turn up!

Classic Ducati

Enfield Bullet?

Riders departing for the run itself - A pleasant enough trip around the Leicestershire countryside.
