Ride for the bigger bikes Sun 30 oct

Postby Stewie » Thu Oct 27, 2016 12:40 pm

Hi all just a heads up, heading out on the local Surrey lanes, probably with a few others but room for a few more, meet up at Ryka's cafe at 1000hrs for a cuppa and off at 1030hrs :D
Runs are aimed at bikes over 650cc more of the duel purpose bike, must have at least 50/50 tyres and means of repair or recovery and most important a GSOH :D

I was smiling all the way back home: great day. Happy to see the GSA can handle those lanes. (I on the other hand can't wait for some more practice)

Thanks for the company today folks, weather was on our side and the lanes were very dry for the time of year, just right for someone dipping the toe or GS1200 into the world of trail riding and he, Ben that is looked like he had been doing it for years.
Great to hook up with Mike again on his BMW HP2 taking everything in his stride, also bumped into Dom who saved the day with stepping in after my 990's alarm disabled the bike and put an end to my day, I did manage to get a few lanes in from Rykas to Rudgwick where we had a light lunch at the Milk Churn Cafe.
Wayne managed to get his bike back after his mishap, with help from Wee Lee.

Never good to end the day in a van, but hey ho it will be fixed and back on the lanes soon :D

Thanks for letting me tag on after meeting you at the scene of the mishap... and glad I could help by leading after Stewie's bike died. I am amazed at how capable those big bikes are, especially on the way back from Newlands where Mike and that HP2 were flying!

Am a newbie to this youtube business :D
