Was a blast...thanks to all involved in setting it up.
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

I may as well do it, as I'm gonna get blamed for it anyway.

First off a huge thanks to the organiser what an excellent site and pub.  Landlord very friendly too.  Arranged good weather too.

Great to start putting faces to names too.

I turned up late so missed the group ride but headed off to explore on my own.  Avebury Ring, Woodhenge, some canal locks etc - it's a brilliant area to explore.  Some of the road across Salisbury plain were designed for Tigers to hurtle across.  So I did.

After a couple of hours I went back to the pub and chewed the fat with Steve(blue steamer) and Simon(BMW).  Nice guys.

Once Anne tuned up with house on wheels we took Honey the hound off for a walk alone the Kennet and Avon Canal.  Whatever you say about bringing a camper at least we were warm in there and coffee was on tap.

As has been poined out where were all the 1050 AND all the other 885efi s ???- I was the only one.  Shame on you all.

Look forward to the next meet

Take care out there

Dit was mos baie lekker kerels. Dankie alles. Too bad I missed the ride out, but was consoled by a near perfect ride home through Wales. Bloody marvelous!

Good to see you all had a great weekend...I would have loved to come along but we had a group ride arranged today to the Elan Valley so had to support it, hopefully next year :)

Thanks all, sorry I had to leave early, but work pays for the bike, nice route and well done to everyone for riding well/courteously, quite refreshing.

A fantastic weekend.  It was good to see those people from last years event as well as meeting a few new faces this year.  And, as someone has said, it is good to make a faceless name on a forum more "human" by meeting the person on the other end of the wire.

Thanks to Robbie for the bacon and egg, that was great first thing Saturday.

Thanks to blackTiger for turning my Fig Rolls and apples (that were sat in my top box) into mush along the "It gets better from here" off road route we took.

The actual route we took and the time can be seen here:
