Fantastic day out right from the first mile; weather couldn't have been any better and the roads were sublime. Definitely one of the best ride outs I've been on so a big thank you to all involved in organising :)

Wow, that looked magic, wished I could have joined you, but promised the boys sand racing at Margate, followed by a quick visit to Manston Airport Museum for tea on the way home, perfect day all round 8)

Had a GREAT day, thanks chaps!


Amazing weather, logs of bikes.


I was slower than most, a little faster than...um...no-one!


Really sorry to have captured Fazersharp's 'Mishap' on full HD video. I'll try my best not to show everybody Fazersharp. But my will power is pathetic!


Thanks again chaps!


.......OOOOPS!!!

What a lovely looking dog! I reckon I stand more danger of being doggy kissed to death!

And fear not, I was referring to the red (pink?) Bros 400. Unless you're offering.  ;)

Excellent vid Andy - you are clearly quite nuts!  :lol

Would love to see you do a tour of a lifetime and film it - would make cracking viewing I reckon.

Thanks for sharing - now I'm running late for everything I've got to do today  :rolleyes
