Just the usual reminder, as it came up in another thread.

I assume some will be Paintballing,
http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/showthread.php?t=23065
whilst the disolving amongst us will be staying in bed to avoid the rain.
Rumour has it that NTB is off to France with Yerbs and RichardS :eek:
Me - I'll be there showing off my new toy :biggrin: :bunny:

If you're a newbie, the regulars (aka 'The Usual Suspects') from UKMOC Kent start appearing from 10am onwards, so don't get disheartend too early. The Oakdene Cafe is here:

We usually try to park the Monsters RIGHT OUTSIDE THE DOOR, and if we're inside, someone usually will be wearing a Ducati or Monster or UKMOC T-shirt.

I'll be going for a ride afterwards (whatever the weather) as my bike needs to be run in...

See you there

Miles

Depends on how heavy the rain is. :moto:
Light rain or drizzle not a problem. :rolleyes:
But persistent downpour, not likely. :cens:

If its not precipitating to heavily and I get the MOT on Saturday. I hope to get over for breakie and a chin wag.

House move all completed so I hope to get a day pass for good behaviour.

Weather forcast for the Sunday is still a moving target - seems to change every time I check it. I honestly think no-one has a clue at the moment :dizzy: , except for "Sunshine and showers" or "Changable" :grump: ...
At last, a proper English Summer like we use to get :biggrin:

Well the forcast has finally settled down... looks like its canoe weather today (Friday) and Saturday, but may only need the water wings on Sunday :nash: :cry:

This is a real pain as I pick up my new toy on Saturday...

I shaln't be suprised if I'm the only one there - and I may end up parking the bike on the tarmac on the other side of the road, as the thought of the Oakdene carpark after all this rain :on:

Be carefull out their folks

I hope some of you got out between the rain. Sorry I didn't get over the MOT was great until the MOT Chap tried the brake pedal / rear brake light.
The brake light would n't go out the switch was permanently on.

So this morning job was to fit a one switch. Hope to see you next month. What was good was the chap gave me the MOT based on trust. A fine gent.

TTFN.

A lucky find there Stu

It wasn't actually that bad on Sunday. I left the Cafe at about 11:30ish, and blasted around Kent getting to know the new steed, not going anywhere in particular, and avoiding the rainclouds - rode lots of wet roads, but only got caught by a few light showers.

New bike is a HOOT :thumbsup: :bunny: :woot:

See you all next week
