I can't make it,  family holiday straight after IOM for me or my life won't be worth living.

I'm going, "iff I get my fucking panels back.

I'm free for the dates, just a case of having something rideable!

Big kev "  

I had my heart set on Bippo tbh... i fear Kev would be a bit too hairy for my taste

Really not sure if I can make it this year. Had time booked off, new pop up tent, new sleeping bag (very compact) extra cog in the front sprocket hoping to beat last years mph, new camchain and minor electrics issue sorted. But the wife had a fractured hip which was operated on yesterday and with it now being school holidays I'm having to take a shed load of annual leave [emoji20] I was proper looking forward to it and now looks like I'll be spending much of the next few weeks hunting for Poke balls!

If only - but I think a 6 yr old and an 11 yr old may not be the best choice lol

Cheers mate. She's almost weight bearing now with the help of a frame. Still in some pain, but considering she fractured 2 weeks ago and caused more damage, doing really well!

Hell no - she was walking round on it for a week; from now on I do whatever she says!!

Even more so now she has metal work to back her up!

I won't be coming in afraid folks. Sold my bike earlier this year in an effort to save up and buy a second house...

Of course I will be getting another bike once all that's out the way, but for now I'm resigned to life in a car... Boo.

Blimey bippo, that's a shock. good luck with it

I know - I'm missing it terribly Paul! But it isn't forever. My gear is still here, ready for my next bike! But after 8+ years in my first house, I'm ready for an upgrade and a change of location.

ahh I thought you were buying a second home, you're leaving Glossop then?

 

Me, here in 'Royson Vasey' I'll never leave lol !

Yeah we're buying a second home with a view to move to that one, but keep this place to rent out. Planning a move to Scotland as I'm not tied to a location with my job. And actually at least we'll still have a home here in case we don't settle!
