August 5, 201410 yr Author Back last night after a great couple of days. Left early on Friday morning meeting great weather all the way. Parked the bike up, threw the cover over it and started indulging in the black stuff and listening to plenty of this and the good lady enjoying a few of these Finally monday arrived and we popped in to say goodbye to some new pals before heading home with sunshine all the way again....Roll on next year. Oh and whilst there I bought myself a Tenor banjo to go with my mando Apologies for some blurry pictures, don't know what happened there.

August 10, 201410 yr What area....far north west is best on Saturday sunday[ Weather wise,],, we"ll be in that area Ullapool .- isle o Skye A bit late BH. But I went to Kelso on the FJR agm and the weather was great if you were a fish. The wifey & I didn't even get slightly damp we have good bike gear and I changed the screen to the the largest I have which 4" wider & taller. We even did the Saturday ride out a minimum of 100 miles of A & B Roads and it was still lashing down the biggest problem was me overheating due to the screen and wet gear. Had really good time meeting up with me old FJR mates though. How did you get on?
