Hi all :-) how's things going??
Sorry I've not been about for a while, bet I've missed loads of stuff!!
I'm trying to get my arse in gear and get the bike running again (unfortunately it's proving to be a bit difficult seeing as the bloody thing won't even turn over now!!)
Hope everyone's well and I hope ti get out and see a few people soon :mand:

Hellooooooo Mand!!!! Seen your pm - CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Hope you both have a great life together :mand:
When do you want to play out? I've got brand new tyres on which have only done about 4 miles since last November (shame on me, I know) lol.
Have you still got my number?
Thanks! We got married at Oulton Park last year! It was a fantastic day. There were even a few UKMOC'ers there. Do you remember Stuart G? He took me and my bridesmaids to the venue in his camper van! He's married now too!
Benson, Justine, PD and Puddinghead, Nonnie, Woddy, Slob, Thuli and of course Julie and Ruth were there too and we had some fantastic photos taken by the lovely ladies. :mand:
I do still have my bike but shamefully I haven't ridden it since our honeymoon.... in need of a rear tyre, as I wore it out being a road racing maniac around the TT course on the Isle of Man (yeah right!!!!) and I'm not sure I could get into my leathers now I am a "contented" married woman. :chuckle: we've been busy doing up our house and bikes have taken a back seat which is a damn shame as the roads around here are "proper ace"! It's on the list to do!
I don't think I do have your number but mine is still the same!
Perhaps we can have a Cheshire meet up?
Does anybody want to sell me a cheapy set of tyres? :chuckle:

Oh my lord! I've just seen the photo you posted on Slob's thread for UKMOC photo, that does bring memories! I don't think my backside ever recovered from the pillion ride on GT's trike. :chuckle:

I thought you said it was comfortable at the time?
It was! I felt like a proper princess on it!
That's when I made the decision to spend a "million pounds" on a deluxe gel seat for my monster. :mand:
Bloody hell everyone crawled out of the wood work. How is everyone?

Tigerlil!!!! Hellooo!!! We have to have a reunion thread if not a meet up! Good excuse to gather a lot of monsters and owners in one place and have a larf!!!

Shame Harley isnt on his PC at present (all being packed up in readyness for his & Jo's soon-coming house move).
We had a great catch-up with them last weekend & were chatting about 'old members' (no jokes you lot! :D) he was asking who still frequented the forum or was out & about still these days.
We all 'clucked' about that 1st ride-in we did together to go to the opening of DLS in Croydon back in mid March 2002, led in by Didge on his M900 & Harley beside him. Anyone else remember that ride? A right noise-ful load of monsters rumbling at some speed up the Purley Way :D
He still has the 944 green monster - its still in good nick & is moving with them - he's looking forwards to taking on a few circuits & over the mountain, likewise so is Jo with her Morini.
They did say to say 'hi' to anyone here who will remember them!
CK
Moving house again Mand..
Are you in some kind of witness protection programme?
Haha you'd think so wouldn't you? No internet for ages, no human contact with "decent" folk... It appears like that Gary, we are finally coming to the next stage in "Operation Cake" moving into our "marriage/renovation" house, It's only been a year! :chuckle:
Perhaps we'll even get back our social lives too? :rolleyes:
