Tim's travellers

Met up at a Little Chef near Worcester yesterday. :bounce1

Joined Rick at Oulton Park for the ride down, sun came out 10 minutes later! Pulled into the car park at around 11.45, stood around for a bit wondering where everyone else was, not realising that Adrian was inside. His bike was parked on the other side. One coffee later, Tim rolled up, complete with three tyres strapped on the back, closely followed by the other Mark, then Ian.
Took over a corner of the restraunt with jackets, helmets and maps for a couple of hours whilst final details got sorted.
Then a pleasant bimble back to mine for a brew.
Can I get any more excited? :bounce1

Yes it was great to meet everyone and with that enthusiasm I'm sure we are in for a great trip. :clap

I enjoyed the ride back but got a drenching after I left Chester and over the Llandegla moors. Not long now and we'll be riding in sunshine

my only problem is...i just don't know what to wear

No, and after the meeting, I'm not as sure as I was. :confused:

Dug out my MX jeans this morning, found my knee pads, but my armoured shorts are definately past it. Will check my packing later in the week and see if I have room to take both.
It was good to put faces to names

It's funny, I've done loads of these trips now using Hein Gericke Tuareg gear, which I find perfect.

Then I get a BMW Rallye suit, feel like a right ponce because they look so new and corporate and the trousers aren't that comfortable.

Even Tina takes the piss out of me now :spitfire

, so it could be back to the old faithfull Tuareg gear

All you need now is a nice pair of boots to finish your outfit off nicely Tim :augie

Cheers for the offer again Mark fitting some Heidenaus on my spare rims and might take you up on this soon as I'd fitted the boxes and ad some weight to get a proper feel of the monster off-road.( busy day tomorrow)
ps. found some touratech brackets courtesy of Garfieldus so no system cases....

cheers Adrian
