Thats as maybe, but you are not a WUSS today

So the resident WUSS is.........MORT.
Complete no show he must be too busy with his crevats or caviar or crevasses or whatever it was that was the long word he used was.

And, he missed a belter apart from Petcul taking us to a closed cafe.

Good to see you guys at the start of the riding season



BIG respect to Norm and Gunz nz Bomz for riding so far in temps down to -8

Bring on the rest of the year

Sorry mate I was having my crack waxed

 

[Don El Eee]

Corker of a day that was.

Unfortunately Petcul's cafe luck didn't improve, we ended up visiting a closed cafe at Kielder and then a closed cafe in Hexham!

Good to meet you all and thanks to Petcul for taking the lead all day.

 

[Mr K]

Forgot to say thank you to Peter for guiding us today.





PS:Anyone with one of those new fangled bikes notice what temperatures we encountered?
I veered between quite cosy and on the edge of shivering during the day..
