Just wanted to say hope the weather holds out for you lot and have a great time ...........going to miss it as i'm still away working and not back to the UK till the 12th October so gutted .

Was going to make the track so i could put some faces to the forum gods ....you know who you are !!!

Could do wth Griff sorting my bike out as well as it's still running like a bag of spanners.......well it was before i left !! Expect more questions on my return mainly on throttle bodies and power commanders and also on a respray job as well , am thinking maybe RSV 4 WSB colours but not sure ...

Have fun.

I'm hoping to come down for Friday night and Saturday - will probably put some mirrors/indicators on the bike and ride down.

Sounds like fun - be good to meet some more Falconeers.

Just ignore him Ben - he's not that scary ... unless he's approaching with a filled hypodermic or lengths of rubber tube.

Nice to hear you're planning to be there.

.... I'm now worried it's going to seem pretty chilly having begun to acclimatise to Spain .....

I was in Spain last week, and apart from a couple of HOT days, the weather turned sour at the end of the week. At the airport the staff reckoned it was the end of the summer...

Trying to get my sh*t together to come (straight from school again!) - all and sundry must promise to give me grief about my nigh on bald (mot 'advisory') rear tyre, or any propensity I have for wrapping myself in the fabric of my tent at the end on the convo on Friday night. Will try to sort out the tyre, but will probably plumb a new depth of basic-bike-maintenance shame (we won't mention cable ties ... Especially as I have a recycled front bracket now fitted).

LOL - they got that wrong then .... it's been feckin' hot nearly all week.

The wind should swing round from the north for the w/e, so dry with nice clear days and nice clear frosty nights.

D-Rider · #14 Post by **D-Rider** » Wed Sep 22, 2010 6:12 pm

Looks as though I might not be there 'till Saturday .... just been on skype and spoken to the Mrs. She thought that as I was away on hols I'd cancelled going to Norfolk - and there are things she needs me to sort out at home.
Hopefully they can be done Friday night without eating in to Saturday.

.... sorry folks - I do want to get there - I've been looking forward to this for ages ...
