Good To See a Few Pics

Meant to take a photie of all the bikes ready to go - but forgot
We were last to arrive - oops! - but I suppose we have the excuse that we were on what turns out to be the oldest bike - and maybe the oldest rider as well? , but let's not go there
Just got back home at 21:45 - as usual, a reasonable run once we got north of Preston, how do you guys cope with that traffic?
Many thanks Chris - see you in Santa Rosa - and look after my favorite bike

Cheers.......................Grizzly

shame that, we were just leaving as you arrived.

if you are 66+ you may well be the oldest rider

look forward to hooking up with you in Santa Rosa.

Thats good , missed the oldest by a couple of years - which is fine!
Garage looks a bit empty now though!

Cheers..........Grizzly

I thought mine was the oldest bike...

My wife says I will be lucky if I get out of California without mishaps

the Mrs. and my buddy Mark see it as a case of "caring in the community" as far as i am concerned. cheeky aren't they?

i agree the garage does look empty. this'll be the longest iv'e been without a bike in the garage for over 50 years and it feels very odd.
i can feel the purchase of a cheap run around coming on as the thought of going over to manchester from here to see my kids and grandkids using the car fills me full of horror

Aha! hence my K1200S not being sold yet Tony

Now, how do I persuade SWMBO that a KTM 990 ADVENTURE R will replace the K bike

It was good to meet up with everyone on Sunday, just a shame it wasn't a bit longer, but we will have time i am sure on the trip, it has been an adventure so far, just getting the bikes to Pershore, we were lucky with the weather. We have arrived home today at 2pm. I have an old 1941 Ariel 350 to use while the Gs is away , just hope it remains in one piece.
Looking forward to the trip, time will soon pass.
Cheers Dean.

I've already spoken to three about this and you don't need to have a full contract. 1 month rolling contract is fine which is what I have. Roaming charges may apply in Canada but the USA is free to use.

I'll share your wifi hotspot and buy you a beer then

Bikes all loaded and heading West. I think I sweated off about 3 stone loading them this afternoon

 

[newboy]

I don't think they'll fall over will they. We could get a second deck in though

Unfortunately, whilst I was on the phone to them, a message came on the automated machine that tethering is unavailable whilst abroad. I would have been happy to let anyone share as I have an unlimited data plan, 'twas no skin off my nose but alas I cannot. Sorry, but for £12.90 it's a good deal

 

[Ex-Call Centre Chimp]

Thanx Chris, much appreciated.
I am slightly concerned about the apparent lack of cotton wool and mattress padding though.
I hope you haven't used one of our bikes as a prop for that shonky KTM.....

A good point, well made.
Fair play.
