No dramas for myself and Hebgbe on the upright bikes but I think the other 2 on the R1-M and Panigale were struggling.

No idea why the others were not out

Probably comfort related depending on the roads you are riding ... found the blade bloody rock hard when riding up there last week. The roads are in a dreadful state in places. Everyone is buying uprights now ... when you can get an upright with sportsbike handling and performance you have to wonder the point of using a sportsbike on the road - I certainly am after trying an S1000R ...

Others weren't out as their invites got stuck in the post ... (not that I'd have made it - was too busy getting pissed)

Wooooosh.....

Others' psychic powers not up to determining there was a run on?

I would have been had one of you let me know

I never thought about it Dave, you're usually there when the 2 old fella's turn up, when you weren't there I just assumed you didn't want to go to Hartside.

Like I said it was a bit last minute, there's still loads of time yet,

I'll post it up next time.

We'd better get a run organized or we'll end being like them Southern homo's.

I agree, although to organise a run one has to inform the usual participants, otherwise the run out doesn't happen, is it going to be one every 2 years now?

[Gavia]

Nobody tells me anything. I'm moving down south now

Let's get a day sorted then, I don't mind where it is so long as someone knows the route and knows where plod hide.

[Jazoli]

Ok so this weekend? next weekend? weekend after?

[Gavia]

I can do Sunday, but not Saturday.

[Biker's Nemesis]

I can do this Sunday.

[twizellb]

In Spain this sunday.

[Jazoli]

Sunday works for me too

[Gavia]

Should we to agree a time and meeting point?

[Biker's Nemesis]

Rothbury 9am?

(so I can fall out of my bed at 8.30am and be on time)

[Gavia]

I'll need to set off now.

[Biker's Nemesis]

OK.

Where and when, bearing in mind I do have at least a couple of hours ride to get to devils Bridge.

[Gavia]

Let's meet somewhere further north then
