Think we might have to have a Yorkshire ride out arranged later in the year when it gets warmer (Bloody freezing yesterday!) or a meet up somewhere. Be good to meet up with other Fazer owners and chat about the bikes and such. What do folks think on that idea?

The A65 is crap IMO. Too much traffic unless its VERY early. The Dales only gets good once you get past Settle and head up to Hawes.


Fridaythorpe Cafe or Willingham Woods offer quieter roads. This weekend will be relatively mild (8 deg on Saturday). I'll probably be heading out to Brid then return to Fridaythorpe Cafe for about 11.30 am Sat or Sun.

Now then Charlie, shame i missed your post, i was out and about last friday... about the only day it wasnt raining.
Braved the cold last night after work too with a quick blast up to the sun inn.... there was no one else crazy enought to be out though and i quickly set off back home, just fitted the R6 rear shock though so was itching to try it out.
Hopefully be out next sunday if the rain holds off.

Title: Re: Calling East/North Yorkshire Foccors!!
Post by: markbubble on 20 July 2012, 05:53:29 am
andy,iv got a few(too many and thinning out!)heinkel scooters,i not only restore and run these but also source and sell parts to club members and help with engine builds etc for them,the only other classics iv got are my micro(or most people think of them as bubblecars)cars in various condition but getting around to them all on road again,iv had various other things from minis and beetles to trabants and hot rods over the years to classic hondas(bikes) etc
space money and time now meens i dont get to restore or use them enough so have cut right back on how many i own(think i had around a dozen cars and 20ish bikes at one time!) i just need to win the lotto so can chuck work then id have more time to work/use them!

was away this weekend in scotland. did 900 miles since Friday. Great roads and if anyone hasn't been across western highlands, i really recommend it.

cheers
