Went to the ulster gp, up at 00:45 down to Cairnryan for the 4 'o'clock ferry arrived at 6:15 went up to the circuit and had a walk round the paddocks before heading up to the hairpin to park up, watched the racing between tornagrough and the hairpin, had to bump start the bike heading back to the ferry, left the parking lights on for 8 hours, but made it on time for the 19:30 ferry back to Cairnryan a wet run home and bed about midnight, a long day. dont know the name yet of the rider who lost his yet RIP it can be a cruel sport.

Weekend just gone: Rode it to BCF BBQ at Glanaman in Wales. Led a ride out and converted more folks to the joys of riding Welsh roads. Got trashed. Rode it home. Not recovered yet.

Finally got round to getting a new rear tyre fitted after my puncture the Sunday before last. Nice new Michelin Pilot Power 3.

I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.

Got to join in with the "yesterday's" I'm afraid - yesterday, went from Albrighton to Shobdon (Work), then down through "Slim Willy's" town to Worcester and then back to Albrighton.
Today, Albrighton to Shobdon, then at midday took a quick trip across to Gloucester (Through SlimWillyVille) and back to Albrighton - all in an honest days work......... ;)

Fancy being out when I'm passing by and in need of a cuppa. Inconsiderate sod  :lol

I didn't bother posting about the ride I did that day in here as it was just another 400 mile day out in the sunshine in Wales when everyone else was at work  :b :evil :D

Now that's interesting. Might take the tent to Llandovery tomorrow, looks like most of Wales will have dry weather 'til at least Tuesday. Got any plan for where you might head to?

Don't worry, been down the Newtown road 2 or 3 times on this one, and it had no inclination to do the yellow bike equivalent of cock it's leg to mark the territory  :lol

Are you offering a fry-up every morning? 
I phoned Erwlon campsite in Llandovery - they've got room for 4 nights. West End CafĂ© for breakfast every morning, then straight out on the great roads  :D

Went on a 950 mile journey around north west scotland, came home and the next day accompanied andrew lawsons family home.
If you dident know, he was a road bike racer who dies in ireland last week. Very emotional ride.
