Oooh. Open now :-)
Opinions are like A**holes, Everyone has one.  Some people seem to have more than one though which is a bit odd.

That's what boredom and 3g do to you  :)

Thanks to everyone who came :-).  I had a nice 56 mile jaunt afterwards via Syston, Bradgate park, M1 Fosse park, Hein Gericke and then A6 back to Harborough.


It was good to meet you all.  Thank you.

Hello Folks,


Thanks very much for putting this little meet together.


I'm glad I came and was really nice to meet you all.


Chris and Steve asked me to pass along the same.


Looking forward to next time - with a bit of luck we'll soon be able to sort a ride in the sunshine :)


Andy

It was a good meet up and I am sure we will manage to reach the coast on a ride out when it is warmer. There is a saying '' no photo no event'' so heres a photo.

You guys are hardcore. The freezing temperatures today kind of take the 'pleasure' out of 'pleasure ride' for me. I know the location though and it would be nice to make this a regular meet as the weather improves as i think quite a few of us are midlands based ???
A run out to the coast would be super duper too as there are some nice routes out around Melton towards the coast.
Yamaha Fazer 'the only bike you'll ever need' maybe ???

 Nice too meet you all and hope it comes a regular meet
 
  I think it was colder riding back to Notts than it was going to Melton
 
  Look forward to warmer next meet  :lol

Fair play for going. Shows great enthusiasm. Must set one up for when its a bit milder , so its enjoyable!...there are some great roads round Rutland.I often ride up from Rugby, do the loop up to MM from Uppingham( where there is  agood tea and sarnies van at the bike shop), then back down to M Harborough. A great run....would be up for a run to skeggy too. Been yrs since I last did that.

I'm always up for a jaunt out.  If anyone fancies a trip out pm me (or arrange a short notice event).  I'm around in the mornings and weekends.
