Wasn't up that late!!!!!!

Sorry Pectul, wasn't up to catch ure reply, decided to go over to my brothers in Malton, Yorkshire. Got to Skipton on the A59 and the fog reduced visability to around a 100yrds. So headed back up the A65 towards Kendal, nasty accident near Long Preston, one completely smashed Ducati and one not looking so good rider in the hedge. Got to the Bridge had a quick brew, headed for Sedburgh and then onto Kirby Stephen. From there went to Middleton in Teesdale then over to Alston. Went past the Hartside around lunch time, visability wasn't great up there either, blasted fog or was it low cloud? not good which ever!.
Got back onto the A6 Blasted back to Kendal with a load of Jap jockies on my tail, keep up 'muppets', she's not even breaking into a sweat.. Cut back across the M6 back to Kirby Lonsdale, Bull Beck, around lancaster, over wyre back home to Cleveleys. 269 miles in total, great day.
Give me a bit more notice next time, had a quick scan at ure exploits i'm impressed respect. Best ive done is a couple of trips to france and a 5000 mile, 14 day round trip to Nerja, southern Spain.
Gonna promote myself to a subscribed tosser soon better for comunication me thinks!!! (Will try and do tonite).
Look forward to hearing from you, Clive

Pretty grim on Hartside. Hung around for a bit talking to GSers there then headed down towards Middleton instead of Borders. Another GS passed me on the way towardes Alston while I was taking photos - PF reg - you? Did a bit of reccying for a Boreen ride next year.

Headed back in time for rugby. Another upset only inches away??????

See you again perhaps.
