Despite the weather Timpo organised another great MM rally for us in Powys.

Camping in a tent wasn't too appealing

So I treated Ange to sleeping in the van:ChrisKelly

Many of us decided to use smaller bikes because of the snow.

My group was very depleted wwith lads not able to get over from Ireland so joined up with Rick's.

It was all hard, hard going.

We wait for the others, someone's having problems.

Slow progress and having to cut trees and fallen branches many times.

Gorgeous bike though:drool

I decided to use Ange's TTR250 as she wasn't riding. A good choice, possibly one of the best basic trail bikes money can buy :clap

And if you're not riding a TTR...........:D

We finished riding around 3.30 having only covered around 20 miles but all knackered and with a smile.
Good one Timpo:thumb2
 
Yes what a cracking weekend, those pictures dont really portray how much hard work was involved in getting anywhere, hence the 20 miles in 4 hours:blast, but a great experience and another superb March Moon, many thanks Timpo and all the ride leaders and persons present for making this another great weekend.:thumb2
 
Ha ha .... that looks like hard work / fun. Nice one .. :thumb2
 
So far so good Jase however wasnt the best weekend to get to grips with it:aidan. And yes a few beers were had by one and all:friday
 
Could always change it for a picture of a TTR250 minus front brake caliper:blasteh
 
Thanks again to Mr T for organising this weekend and putting the effort in to get us all together.

Great to meet some new and catch up with some old faces (I am rapidly joining the latter grouping)

That Twistgrip beer . . . what a pint :beer:

I love the snow, but this was getting silly. Tried 2 rides on the Saturday and managed a grand total of 15 miles (using front wheel measurement, rear wheel tracked 80!). Hardest slog I think I've ever done.

Fair doos to the camping folk :bow. Rick had it hard as well :D

gives you an idea about the snow watch one of the Devon lads digging through managed to sit on the rear and wheelie his way through:beerjug:
 
Shakes head in disbelief

No, no, no. Other than the craic I cannot see anything in the slightest that attracts me to that. You are a complete bunch of nutjacks. I feel exhausted and fekkin cold'n'wet after watching the vid and pics. Crackers.
