A great destination, one of Gloucestershires secret pubs tucked away in a hidden fold in the Cotswold Hills, miles from main roads and up a dead end track.

Went over to the DOC club meet at Symonds Yat last night, and a few of their lot seem to want to retaliate by coming over, so we may have a few extras tonight subject to weather.

Well, what a fantastic turn out!!
7 monsters, 2 900ss's, a brand new 999, and a v-raptor.
And you were right about that bloody hairpin, Duncan, it's a true nightmare, especially in the dark! (didn't dab though!)

Ah yes a fine turn out and some legendary bits of loose surface and grass growing in the road. Not to mention a 1 in 4 and Daniels Dab Hill on your way home.

Me and JR had a scheduled Cider stop on the way back and came out to torrential rain. Good fun though and planning to do Wye Valley next week.

Dunc,

Tuesday 1930hrs at Severn View Services it is, for another brilliant ride up to Symonds Yat. Sad to say, but this will be my last ride out on the 600 Yellow Monster.

Baz -
I got first option on a certain Billybigwheels bike (M1000), when he sold me the Yellow Monster last year. As Nat said, I got it in the end, but we are doing an "Ali Shuffle" part ex/ part cash. If anyone is interested in a nice Yellow 600 W Reg (8000 miles new mot/service history/belts done last year) send me a PM before it ends up in a dealer as part of Billy's new bike purchase.
Are you going to join us for the run up to Symonds Yat on Tuesday?

Nice one, I've heard that they're a bit naughty, enjoy it !!! as far as the run goes, I doubt it Jim, as I've got an oil leak from the base of my rear cylinder and I'm waiting for it to go into Riders. But I will be taking a gentle run over to the bike show on Saturday, armed wi th cloth's and a litre of oil :D

Baz - Dont know what you mean about the M1000 being a bit naughty! I rode the demo bike at Mallory and fell in love with it. I am a slow old git anyway - as long as it will pull at 20mph without the chain snatching in 6th gear I will be more than happy. If the show on Saturday is half as good as last year it will be a great day out.

Nat, re arrange these letters, ffkocuf :D :D :D

Jim, what I meant was, they've got loads of grunt and handle like a dream :D
and you forgot to add to your pulling away method, leaning forward over the handle bars, speedway stylee, to keep the front end down :D :D :D .

See you both there on Saturday.
