Fuckinell; sorry to hear that; that's not the kind of drop off system you need; we hung around and Rick went back for a quick look; that corner as an absolute bastard even in the dry;; glad to hear your ok and all the best.
Just seen the picky; they dont make kit kats like they used to;
all fine wasn't much of a crash just a squirmy not very technical dismount...
with a comedy sled ride...been round that corner a few times... was more concerned meeting some fecker coming the other way
that's the switch back... on mortimer lane... after chummie moved on... had to take a moment document ride out...
Well thank fukk for that! I've just this minute been in touch again with the Janitor expressing my concern for your disappearance and was then about to jump in my van and drive from home up and across Mortimer Road(Strines) as I wouldn't have been able to sleep. Thank fukk you're ok. From that steephill we rode about a mile further on and at a left branch to Langsett Reservoir Redrick dropped off and waited for you. Eventually with no show Rick went back some way but with no sign of you, we came to the conclusion that after such a torrid time getting up here and your impending busy day tomorrow, you decided to turn back and head home!
Oh what a shitter. So sorry and fukk fukk fukk.
However, on the up side, you're safe and home but the main thing is I don't have to fekkin drive over the moors late at night stopping every half mile shouting into the wilderness " HELLO LOIQ, ARE YOU OUT THERE...HELLOOOOOO!
I hope this hasn't deterred you from visiting again.
I'd pay good money to see that...However, on the up side, you're safe and home but the main thing is I don't have to fekkin drive over the moors late at night stopping every half mile shouting into the wilderness " HELLO LOIQ, ARE YOU OUT THERE...HELLOOOOOO!
when the rear wheel lit up and it all went into slowmo... I did think fuck it "I'm gonna throw the bitch in the ditch....!" it was all good probably the most controlled crash I've ever had...! (not a crash a unscheduled none technical dismount)
teaching tomorrow.... so having a lovely cuppa tea
Glad you are ok. We hung back for you and Rick went back to look for you.
Much damage to the bike ?
A cracking day out thanks Twizzle and great to put faces to names and names to proper names 
A decent turnout for a mid Winter meet I must say. Should do it again but next time in the Summer

Soooo, all's well that ends well eh. After a bright start, by midday at the Yondermann the light rain had crept in.....and got heavier until finally easing off enough by 2 o'clock and much getting to know you bollox for us to ride off into the sunse...sorry, dark drizzle. Down to Bradwell, Bamford, Ladybower, Strines, Langsett, Holmfirth, Holme Moss and Glossop. Snake Pass in the distance was shrouded in heavy cloud and rain so we said fekk it, abandoned the idea of Matlock Bath as by this time it was 4.30+ and headed down to Chinley where Twizzle was staying for the night.
Attendees while it's fresh in my memory, were Twizzle who rode up from Portsmouth this morning, Jefforstom who rode down from Newcastle this morning too, Carefulkev over from the Midlands/Shropshire way, Snelly from Dronfield, me from Sheffield, Doc Slawit, Redrick the Badlands, and Loiq down Twizzle's neck of the woods. Respect for those who travelled so far for a pot of tea .
A good Summers day despite the fekkin rain.
Cheers all.

Hope we do it again sometime soon although my ears are still burning after Twizzle's constant talking.
Redrick did warn us.
Did everyone get home ok ?
