Well, I'm still alive, although the pull of the hedgerows was strong on this ride  :b .
 
Think I may have finished off my rear tyre, what do you think, one more ride ?

Yeah, you have to be careful with those yellow bikes, they do like a nice hedgerow  ;)  :lol

Loads left on that tyre yet; ask slimwilly, barely scrubbed-in by his standards :eek

Got home at 6.45 safe and sound, another great day out, thanks to both Maxzer and Dazza for leading.


Some interesting roads in the morning,


Dazza I think the technical word for you tyre is F*&ked

gutted I missed out on today.  Glad a good time was had by all.


Were you guys on the A249 (Sittingbourne bound) about 1130?  I'm sure I saw Dazza's bike as I was heading towards Maidstone.
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys beer, and that helps!

Harry, unless you have found a way to tame wormholes and can now control space time continuum, you wouldn't have seen my bike. To a mere mortal it appears as a yellow streak across your retina.  :D
 
Punkstig, I'm going to arrange a Lofo rideout next month......

Haha, well it wasn't a proper look meet and tbh I'm going to blame my mate, clearly it's not my fault in the slightest, but thanks for arranging the next one!

I met up with Punkstig and his mate and had a chat at High Beach with them but sort of decided the same as them and made my way back home instead of heading to Margate as it was quite a distance to cover on roads that I have no knowledge of which would have meant I'd have been on Motorways :\

Still, had a great 2 hour ride around Hertfordshire and Essex getting to High Beach in the morning and a nice journey back home, so ultimately a successful day :)
