Stop, lid off and ask smile

Loon is easy to spot - he's the one arguing with the ice cream van operator over indemnity insurance.

Quite easy really,

On one wheel = BN
On the most expensive bike = Loon
On the cleanest bike = OCD
On a different bike = Me
On a grandad bike = hebegb
At the back = Yazza

You mean you have no idea what I look like or ride.

I knew I didn't post enough pictures of myself.

Most meet up at Kirkby Lonsdale (Devil's Bridge) as the central meet point... some travel up from Bolton, Some travel down from Perthshire / Cumbria and some travel across from the North East... others like that tosser Jazoli turns up five minutes after we arrive as he lives round the corner! biggrin

Sometimes we stay local to Kirkby and ride the roads round there... sometimes we go up to Hartside Top.

Anyone is welcome as long as they ride within their own comfort zone. Ego's and Hero's are left at home. smile

Subscribe to the thread to keep tabs on what is going on ... some rides are planned, some are last minute!

Was anyone out and about yesterday?

Me and a mate went out via Burnley, Clitheroe, Trough of Bowland, Dunsop Bridge, Caton - Devil's Bridge, then back via Ingleton, Settle, Rathmell, Gisburn etc.

Good ride and first of the year but what really stood out was the state of the roads, especially the smaller ones. Absolutely fked, broken up, great scabs coming off the surface. Never seen them so bad. Not fun on an R1.

nope, had to work on Sunday, the roads are a mess in places and not sportsbike friendly at all.

I'll be out most weekends from now on if the weather is fine.

I was out last Sunday and thought the same. After my trackday a few days before I was really looking forward to getting out but didn't enjoy it at all. Currently wondering whether I want to bother with road riding which I never thought I'd say.

I feel like that most years Tom but a good run on a warm day with little traffic usually is enough to get my interest again, I need a destination these days, lost interest in just riding the same old roads week in week out.
I'm hoping it does with a few more rides, I've always been looking forward to the start of the season but this year I haven't at all. I loved the track day but on the road I'm just not feeling it.
