With any luck I'll be joining too.
Although a mate said the police down there are really cracking down on cruises. 3 cars max he said unless it's been agreed before hand. Not sure how true this is.

Sorry Colin, I won't be able to make it now. Have a fantastic cruise.

Just reading about this, where do we stand legally? Also anyone know for sure how certain this event is to go ahead and what's the local weather looking like. I'd be making a 2.5/3hr trio from Milton Keynes

Hi Chib, great meeting you. That bike is mean as hell! Glad you enjoyed the show and noise... Ps I'll keep ear to the ground on the spiders for you. Told you about the act pipe... More snap, crackle and pop than a bowl of Rice Krispies! (V8 not needed ;P)

Hi all it was mine that blew its top,I think all is fine only one of the twin fans were working I hadn't noticed,sadly with 80c heat plus a few thrashings up and down royal artillery way the journey to the sea front at 10mph in traffic was too much for one fan!
It only took a splash of water just blew the pressure release valve on the expansion tank so no harm done!
Nice to see everyone!

I am not sure about that, maybe not the loudest exhaust note but following your blue Tam in my Griff those bangs on the overrun are unbelievably loud, lots of flames too

Another great meet in James' memory, you have done him proud once again. I'll get some photos uploaded later today.
