Wanna meet at the MacD in Congleton? Or I can head further south, meet you somewhere and then head over from wherever

Sounds like a good place location wise

Anyone over the west side of the country, I'm gonna be at MacDonalds in Congleton for around 9-9:30, meeting Flatlander then heading over from there. Anyone else wants to meet us there, they're welcome to, otherwise see you at Fiveways

By my reckoning, there's me, Flatlander, Squid, Nero and Nicketynoo. Anyone else?

I'm not going to make it. Truthfully, I woke up, looked out of the window at 8:00 and the steamy breath of a dog walker made me think fuck that. So I stayed in my toastie warm bed.
Have fun, ride safe 👍

erm yeah I think it was the other way around, think you all did well keeping up with me. Since Ive been rumbled I suppose I better come out of the closet and post pictures of my new bike in the gallery.
Enjoyed the ride out today especially the company, thanks Random,firestarter and flatliner.
Only the hardcore bikers out today, at least it kept dry. :smt003

Was a good day, thanks all, really good to catch up.

So you'd rather fuck dogs than come out for a ride?
Each to his own I spose.

That's Telford for you. They're weird like that there. Even more so than Wednesbury.

I almost joined you too. Did think about it but thought I would be too late but as it turns out possibly not. I was on my way back from Manchester but took my usual route over the top to Chesterfield rather than through Buxton, would have been around 11.
Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can enjoy today

As soon as you saw my name on it you should have known we were never going to be early!
A cracking day out and anyone who thinks an R1 is better looking than a Brutale is ... Well just plain weird!
