Where you planning going dude? -
A bit more American horseshit. Very few pumps in the UK have locklatches on them, only lazy Yanks see the need to let go of the pump while it's filling but fuel will expand and on days like we're currently having you may suffer the occasional spill. Ever hear your fuel tank wheezing when you park in the sunshine? That's the tank pressurising internally. -
A while ago there was a report about the Irish priests sex abuse scandal. It was written by Roger Boyes -
....following the plane crash in San Francisco, one American news station got it spectactularly wrong. Sorry about the ad but watch in disbelief http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/10177548/San-Francisco-plane-crash-TV-station-apologises-for-broadcasting-fake-racially-offensive-pilot-names.html -

Well I've found my way back, just as England got the last wicket Good day out, despite a drizzly start the weather came good as soon as we got into Derbyshire. I expect the others will have a bit to add in due course, don't think anyone got any good scenic shots which is a shame. They seem happy enough, and why not with that lot to fill your face with? Where's Dan? Ah,OK Don't panic, the cafe is next door-just thought the pub made a nice background to the bikes. The Duke wasn't with us but we did have a chat with the guy over ice cream/fags/coffee. Thanks for coming along gang. -
Hinckley & Bosworth Council has voted through restrictions that the manager has said will mean the track will become an untenable business proposition. I suspect there are moves afoot to put the area to other use where a few individuals will no doubt trouser a handsome profit.

I'm up & got a coffee to hand . Been awake for a time actually, my son's just come back from Vietnam so his body clock's a bit off kilter, he's been knocking about since about 5:00. He's gone off to hit a few golf balls bless him

best get myself off to bed then

Fired my Bandit up today still love it tbh. Z1000 is a fine bike though, nearly as good as a Speed Triple in fact -
Great stuff pressure's on though, hope I can get up
-
Anyone welcome mate. I don't plan tanking around so all abilities catered for.

Well, I've had my shore pass stamped for tomorrow morning so I figure on the scenic route to Windy Ridge for brekkie, probably call at Cat & Fiddle for a shandy and then the A53 route back home. I' ll be rolling around 9. Anyone interested please be in the lay by on the Mansfield/Hucknall side of M1 J27 at 9:00 & we can hook up there.

I've been out mate! Got to pick my son up from the station, not seen him for 3 months. I may very well be out for a breakfast bunfight tomorrow though. -

I look like having to fly to Jersey that week but should be back Friday night. -
I thought you were posting a decent sized rideout -
BTW if you fancy the coast Sunday is good at the Whistle Stop in Whitby. And obviously fish and chips will be bob on. -
Well if I'm going out I'll post of course but no obligation mate, whatever suits. "

I'm hoping for a blast up Derbyshire mate but no event, just a few miles and a butty
-
And I'm in Kirkcaldy waiting for my dinner at a Brewer's Fayre, Guinness in hand. -

Do you have any plans for keeping track of the bikes Dave? We did the drop off/marker system on Sunday and it worked pretty well ,even though at times we were quite well separated. -
Not the same one is it Den? 52 yr old being held over this Hucknall murder. -
