Sorry I forgot to thank everyone for waiting for me at Lymm services.... It was very much appreciated, I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long.

Hi Guys,
Many apologies for not hanging around to meet up, it was just that Matlock was teaming with scooterist when I arrived and there was nowhere for me to park the bike which was fully loaded with panniers. Kept riding for a little while and ended up in Ripley. Traffic heading back into Matlock on A6 from south was horrendous. Decided, rather than fight my way back I would take a slow ride home and managed to phone Alan (ZZG) to let him know my plans.

As it happened, took in Ashbourne, Buxton, Stockport, Bakewell and Matlock yesterday, so quite a bit of travelling and sight seeing and joinery wasn't wasted.
Once again folks apologies for a no show but I am sure there will be another time.

Roger (road runner)

Alan, Thanks for the run today. A Big Thank you to Liam for the use of your spanners & slave starting the sh300. Also a big Thank you to Gerard for keeping us safe & your support. When we three got to the main road I was very lucky that an AA Patrol was just passing who we waved down. He confirmed the wiring by the regulator had overheated & burnt . He carried out a temporary repair to the wiring loom which enabled us to ride home.

Glad to hear you all had a good day out

Good to see everybody and meet some new faces, nice roads up by the lake.
Cost me a broken lug on some tupperware from some crap off the road but fun all the same.

Good to see Horobags deploy Hondas new top secret high speed aerofoil spoilers just like on a Porsche :)

Stepped in at 9pm. Knackered, 3 tanks of fuel and close to 400 miles. Don't know the exact mileage I'll work it out later

A realy big thank you to the organisers for sorting everyone out. Also a realy bug thank you to Liam for guiding me out of Derbyshire. After we split up I got lost. Have to sort a sat nav and power for next time.

Thanks again to everyone for making me feel very welcome.

Chris
