Hi everybody,
just wondering if anyones riding down to the weekender from round these parts? I think I'll be going straight from work at about 4. If anybody fancys meeting up for the ride down give me a shout. (mainly cos I don't know where I'm going!)

sounds good, I work in the middle of huddersfield near enough so rather than you try and find your way in on a friday afternoon I could meet you out by the M1 by about 4.20.
Just gotta make sure the bikes all sorted now. got some new switch gear to put on tonight or I'll have no headlights. need to pick me leathers up as well, took them to the shop to get a zip sewn into me trousers and was told they'd be ready today. think I should invest in some waterproofs that work as well!

I can't make it now. Scotty's weekend plans are blown, mine are put upon me. Oh well, Might try for Saturday night stay with the outlaws and venture over Sunday mornong for the blat. If the bike'll stand it. But I doubt it.

aah nuts mate, but I have a cunning plan.
get your bike outside the house then start a HUGE rolling burnout and a couple of doughnuts in your drive. Then in all the smoke and confusion leg it up the road and nobody will know where you've gone! genious or what?

urmmm..... I'll get me coat

lol, I fear a rolling bunout would burnout more than I dare.

hmmm, fair do's.
gotta be said, if I tried a burnout on mine at the minute I think the clutch would have a fit then just cry itself to sleep. as long as it lasts me another few weeks it'll be fine.

ummm, yep. think it's 24. its the hudds brighouse turnoff either way.
if you turn left at the bottom of the slip road (follow signs to hudds) theres a layby about 50yards up the road I could meet you at. depending on what time you get there you could trek on a bit and grab yaself a cup o tea while I try and sort myself out.

Either way its gotta be more fun than lugging furniture!

ooh, just thought. need to buy tank bag and waterproofs tonight.

Sorry for the late reply guys, I thought I'd posted this earlier :o

Me and Rabbit are near J22 of the M60, and are planning to go through Stockport to the M56 then onto the M6.

We can meet you at Knutsford services if you like about 5pm if you like :)


You've both got my number anyway so you can always text me.
