We will pop in and see you all on Sat. Will not be on the bikes as mine is not ready and davinas has no tax (i can't justify giving the robbing cunts a free month) so we will be in the car with grandaughter in tow.

Well I said I couldn't go .... but thought "sod that" and trundled across today.

Was good to see those I knew and good to meet those I'd not met before.

Lovely weather and a nice part of the world ...... if only someone hadn't dumped Birmingham in the way, the journey would have been even better!

I hear that the black ones tend to "go missing" too ..... that's when they are not doing their round Britain research for the "Good RAC Guide".
I fear that our "Recovery Service Mystery Shopper" may soon blow his cover as I think he's getting a bit too well known ..........

Funny you should mention it andy.
I arranged to meet pete at griffs friday but unfortunatly a BLACK framed falco had to be on call to trundle down the M6 motorway with a battery from griffs to the services and recover a bewildered man stood at the side of his bike :smt064.


Anyway i would like to thank martdude and his wife for a brilliant weekend :smt023
The guys who assisted with the pitching of the tent, I doubt it won't be long before the pictures arrive :smt017
The area of shropshire is such a lovely place to visit.
The pub was good.
And it was great to meet up with a few i knew and a lot i did'nt
Marts breakfast amd barbecue were brilliant.
The weather was kind....Very
And the ride out saturday was awsome too.
An overall enjoyable weekend it was ................................FANTASTIC :smt003

I've just had an Email from the RAC saying that all applications for Faclo breakdown cover will be vetted on a one by one basis. Not sure of the criteria...
