SADO said:
Good to meet up this morning. It was nice to see you all at Newlands (well, Haggis, PJ, Great Scott and NCPierce). Sorry I didn't have the guts to ride in the cold to Devils Dyke but AT LEAST I TURNED UP for a coffee and chat.............:augie

PS, Auto have you found your keys yet.........:blast

Fixed it for you .... :augie





















:hide


How are you mate?
 
Another great Newlands Posse rideout even if a little short on the Posse :augie. Well lead by Haggis (The spirit of the Captain Lives on) and without sat nav :thumb.
A few dodgy corners with sheet ice, but in all the roads weren't too bad.
Nice to meet a couple more new faces :clap.

Hopefully do another one in a few weeks (Andy should have found his keys by then :D) and hopefully a bit warmer as well.
 
Cheers lads. Good on Haggis for taking the lead :clap Good to meet you and have a nice little ride out. Hope you all got home safe. Bike washed and safely in the garage:)

PS Perhaps I'll meet Auto another day :mmmm
 
Thank you Gents for a good day out! :thumb2 Most enjoyable.

Good to see you at Newlands, SADO but sorry you couldn't join us. You'd only have got that pristine bike of yours a bit dirty :augie

I got a text sometime during the return journey from Autogs to say he'd just found his keys! :blast Or should that be 'key' as it seams BMW don't actually give you a spare key when you spend all that money on a new bike!:nenau

Thanks ncpierce for the route back. There were a couple of scary patches here and there.:eek:

Right PJ, here's to Wales!:thumb
 
Thanks to haggisblower and PJ1200 for the run down to Devils Dyke. Its not a proper ride without at least 1 group u-turn. May be everyone else will reappear once it gets a bit warmer. :comfort

I saw -6.5 degrees on the temperature gauge at one point on my way to Newlands this morning. I think it maxed out at around +5 on the sunny south coast.

Thanks ncpierce for the route back. There were a couple of scary patches here and there.

Glad you enjoyed the run home. The only dodgy patches I saw was the 2 motorway crossings when we were almost home. I get a bit annoyed with the twat in the M3 near Ardingly hence my slight turn of speed :augie

Bike washed and safely in the garage

I wish I'd had the chance. The outside tap at the flats is frozen so I managed to only wash a bit off with what was left in my garden sprayer!

Must do it again!

....glad you all made kept it rubber side down this time ... :augie

Well done Haggis - you are now officially the leader of the gang - I had the title with a Remus pipe - but your pipes are so much better ... :oonyack

Nice to see that PJ made the effort again, shaving, washing, brushing his hair .... :augie ... :D .. :thumb

Auto - that has to be the most lame exuse for not going for a ride ... almost as bad as SADO ... "it's too cold" ... :rolleyes:

:clap

I'll say it again "AT LEAST I TURNED UP".......

"It's never too cold to ride, there's no such thing as bad weather only inappropriate clothing":rob

It was fecking cold yesterday although I was much colder whilst standing around Newlands for 2 hours waiting for the organiser of the ride out to turn up than when I was actually riding.........:augie:D:oonyack

Oi, may I remind you... this was meant to be Autogs's run originally!.. :augie Just stepping up!

PJ and I were in agreement that you'd have loved the route! There were sections of country lanes similar to the ring :ymca.

Anyway, I'll take your first comment (before you got jealous :comfort).
