2 Wheels Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I had a bloody great weekend, loved every minute. 100 per cent agree on a second meet every year. End of August ?? Blackhat you choose? Great ride out,,,, lots of miles, loads to see, great roads, perfect speeds (fast X slow), really like riding with you lot as we now know eachother's riding style's over the years. Your a great bunch of lads. Thanks Merve for the route and leading the way. No crashes is good as it doesn't spoil the day. I had good fun at the back, kicking up a sand storm on poor Tommy,,,, I know you were swearing at me, I can lip read,,,,, + out sneaky pint was so funny at the time. Really good weekend,,, my boots were full of water when I left Merve but the rest of me was dry. I took A40 home in the end,,,, was busy, had to do a lot of 50mph filtering. My back tyre is dead, I'll be lucky to get the week out of it. Yellow mellow,,,, pitty you didn't make it after all your time trying. Thanks all,,,,, chat soon,,,,,,, ps I didn't take any pictures, sorry Pat 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finnerz89 Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 Thanks all for a great couple of days. Managed to get home just in time to avoid the rain and pick the Mrs up from the station so bonus points for me and good boyfriend points from her lol. Shout out to merve for arranging and sorting out a cracking route! I agree on 2 meets a year - happy to try and sort something for Derbyshire again if that's what people want Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bippo Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I made it back home safely too. I had a thoroughly enjoyable time, can't believe 2016 would have been my last time out on one of these...! Anyway, thanks Merv for the planning (it was a fun ride) and supplying us with a BBQ. Thanks to Tommy for catching my bike (!! - I'm an idiot). Also thanks to Tommy and Drewps for the chaperoning home (hope you didn't mind me wizzing past you on those twisties, Tommy?) It was great seeing familiar faces again (Andrew, Jason, Tommy, Paul) and wonderful meeting new faces (Merv, Martin, Pat). I'd be up for meeting more regularly too. I'm away with work now, but will check through my footage and see if I captured anything good. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy xs Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 What a fantastic weekend I couldn’t have dreamt it better, thanks as always to Andy for getting us there and to Merv organising it so brilliantly. Thanks for the patience of all behind me lol Bipps you are the best tail end Charlie, I doubt anyone could have done it better. Bipps you blew me away, going home, wow you can a shift on that thing, I saw my arse when it started to rain, guess I just don’t get out enough, let’s do it all again soon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bippo Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 That road was amazing, although I had to really time my overtake because you’re a sucker for flooring it out of the bends...!I completely forgot to thank Cynic for serving as our ever patient fire starter and Drewps for some good cooking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy xs Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 The right man for the job, who better than Duke Nukem to be the fire starter. Especially as me and pat were busy keeping the beer flowing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bippo Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Pulled a short video together now that I'm back from my work travels. I tried to throw some music over the top (by a Welsh band, naturally) but after upload to YouTube the audio quality became distorted - so you may wish to mute. UPDATE: I've now sorted the music quality, and it'll default to 1080p if viewed via YouTube, rather than the embed below. In truth I had actually managed to film probably about 70-80% of the entire ride out on both days, so this video barely scratches the surface! Tommy is lucky, on the ride home I had put the cameras away so didn't get to capture my leaving him for dust on that beautiful, flowing road I'll see what photos I took on my phone and share any worthy ones later. But for now, sit back and waste 5 minutes of your life... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sort of have that on video, but conveniently enough it didn't make the final cut... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slice Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Well done Bips, so much better than my effort, at least yours is in focus and has no swearing in it! Went to Portsmouth yesterday and found myself trying not to swear out loud, it's so much harder than you think !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
