Some people have to work you know...

I agree , I would of gone on a Saturday/Sunday.... Guess they didn't want too many to attend...?

As you can see we got 7 riders so that was a nice number.
It's not about us "not wanting" anybody, all are welcome but there will always be variations in working days and days off.
There are not many weekday rides and i know for sure a couple of peeps who can't make weekends for various reasons.

Anyway, here you are guys. One for you, maybe !!
You will be welcome but don't expect to go fast

Sorry changed my mind, find it so frustrating on rides when national speed limit isn't achieved, I know a lot will say just chill out and enjoy the ride, but it just frustrates me, I enjoy the ride with a bit of speed and as national speed limit on a dual carriageway 'A' road is 70mph that's a nice fun twisty speed.

Done a few rides to Margate and Hastings from ace cafe with a large crowd of blokes on everything from old BMW's to cb500's to new pocket rockets and Tmax held its own and surprised a few.
I know we all like to ride but speed/cc banding is better and more fun for all. If I was on a deretricted 50mph 50cc 2 stroke a ride with the cub 90's or the odd 125 4 stroke would be fun for all, the 50cc would leave the 125cc 4 strokes for dust of the lights and visa versa 40 mins later when the 2 stroke blows up! But all would have a laugh...."Schadenfreude".
not really linked but fun bikes.

Darren why the double post?
You are welcome to your opinion, but why twice and on this thread ?

if you wont to go fast and safe,ride on the track.i have done the quick speeds back in time,not now,too many cameras, and old-bill cars/un-marked cars/bikes about.even round the quiet lanes,but if you want me to put my old racing bike back in one piece..?????????????
I could,now what race track,would you chose..???????/ see it all before,too fast for the roads,get on the track,and I go bye-bye.
