My first ever organised ride today, and what a beautiful day it was! Sunny and calm with temperatures up to 18. Large turnaround with up to 20 bikes from both maxi muppets and nc700 forums.

I hope everyone enjoyed the ride and the day, and special thanks to Mottza for helping out planning it and manning the tail gunner.

I clocked 160 miles today and at one point the dash was showing over 90mpg (which is usually 2mpg less than real!)

Here are some photos from the day

Oasis Cafe - initial meet up

Tried to capture some shots while people were leaving

Great day out Murat! Really enjoyed it. Nice to be at the back for a change. Nearly lost one guy with the V reg Kriss scooter.

In all out for 9½ hours and 250 miles done.

The ride back via Camber, Rye and the A268 was quite pleasant.

Video will be out in due course.

Thank you so much for organising, had a great day, gorgeous weather, great company and glad to meet a few of you. Thank you to those that came over to say hello, sorry was catching up on accident stories with my NC family.

Nice to meet you PoppetM. Your Forza looked very nice.

Can I just say a big thanks to halfabusa (Murat) for organising & leading a fantastic ride out.

A good ecleptic mix of machines with several forums represented.

Nice to meet some new faces also & hopefully one at least will be joining here soon.

on a personal note have to say there where also some fine beards on display

Nice turn out well done .

Think we had 16 on the ride with another 3 or 4 meeting us there.

Think you hit on a good recipe for a ride Murat.

Looking forward to Dungeness Invasion II
