Put this on the BMW thread, but thought you guys might like to see some of the pics, sorry about the Beemers :oops:

OK, so not much of a ride really, about 130 miles round trip but thought Id share a few pictures with you from the day.

Twats at the gate sent me the wrong way, went up a lane knee deep in mud, well nearly.
