Anyone fancy a ride out some time soon on the two wheeled single track motorbike tours?

It’s been a while. Superfli? Poddies? Welsh and border crew?

What say you?

Silverstone GP ?

Those tyres are not very round. I’d change them if I was you.

*jaw hits flaw*

Ducati 848 – nom nom nom nom.

One mean lookin’ motorcycle you have there, fella.

I’ll hopefully be picking up my MT07 within a month. I’d be well up for a ride somewhere! Good way to run it in.

She does look lovely. I look forward to the ride out even more now, to see how we match up…. 899 with Termis but no pics yet I just realised. No ohlins, but loving the big piston Showas.

I’m just waiting for a horn to arrive and can then daytime MOT it once I work out the wiring for the horn from switchgear, which is a little confusing for some weird reason.

The pic above is from Portimao a couple of weeks back.

You going to Auto Italia in Bristol tomorrow ?

No, fixing my campervan

Ride! When and where? Stop bragging about your bikes guys and lets get it organised.

prepared to organise a ride round here, MCN test route and loads of great “un-policed” roads?

Ok now you’re just showing off 😉

*edit* But rightly so!

Cycle life, are you in Norfolk?

I won’t mention the spec of my 10R then eh Weeksy 😆

Rutland

I’m deffo up for another Southern / Welsh ride.

My bike is sat on its likkle mat all ready to go 🙂

I

Nice BMW but which Bonnie is that?

Aka_Gilo, look those chicken strips!

Only joking. But a trip on your roads will soon sort this!

Will there be a slow group? I need to bring one of my bikes down to London but whatever one that is (probably my CBF1000GT) there is no danger that I’ll even try to keep up with the sports bike folks!

We need a Northern one ……

I turned my motorbike into the base for a temporary worktop. I am ashamed. But it’s quite a good worktop.

Chaps, Welsh roads favour all bikes. Sheep slow you down, but the Tarmac is worth the trip, I suggest our northern chapter could join us for an adventure, and then we can have a south to north trip too?

Ok, not sure what’s going on here but I’m prepared to lead a ride based on Rutland/Lincs/Northants using loads of roads that are in all the “best Riding Roads” of GB books/sites etc.

Suggest meet at Rutland Water 10.00am ride until 4.00pm with stops for fags/piss and lunch every hour. Can’t guarantee no Cops but in 5 years round here I’ve only seen two traps 🙂

I don’t mind when but may i suggest Sunday 10th May?

count me in. Based in North Wales but can head south…

I’m always keen for a rideout, but my weekends are often busy. Shout out a date and I’ll let you know. S.Wales preferable 🙂
I’ve no longer got a sportsbike, but the GS can be slung around corners pretty swiftly, just have to wait for me on the straights!

Ok, here we go – Copy and Paste into a “Reply” and add your name 🙂

Daisy Duke – ?

I’ll put up a route over the weekend with GPX for your TW-T Navs 🙂

Popping out, will be back with tea and biscuits a bit later on.

Stop messing about and get yourselves up to Scotland.

Home

Scotland is where all my motorbikes currently live so would be up for any ride-out there.

Sunday 10th May I’m at Rockingham with the wife riding the 848 and me on pit-crew duty. Maybe would be nice if you head over that way and come for a chat and watch people going round ?

We could certainly incorporate that into the route as we go down the Uppingham to Corby Road.

Is it a race or Trackday – can you get us in 😉

trackday, no worries ‘getting in’ it’s fully open to spectators.

Some cracking riding in the Scottish Borders.

Pussy stripes on that Gixer !

I’m up for one if we can get a few Scotland-based folk interested.

+1

I’m up for a North Wales based ride if anyone fancies it?

Some cracking riding in the Scottish Borders.

Like this for example?

The road drops down a steep hill then continues along the right hand side of that reservoir. It’s a very quiet road but not far south of Edinburgh – I have a little 100 mile loop that includes it.

Yup, count me in, will bring the tracer along for a ride, sorry perfectly standard in comparision to some of the above

2013 limited edition Bonneville Dark.

Yeah yeah! The tyres were only about 50 miles old when I took that pic. :-). Mind you, it’s my first time on Metzeler M7RRs – they’re great tyres but I’m really struggling to get right to the edge of the tyre. I don’t hang about but there’s still a few mm of virgin rubber on the edge of each tyre. On Sportsmarts there’d be no chicken strips left within the first 100 miles.
