LoFo October Ride

[Hedgetrimmer]

An enjoyable day out, sunshine all day once we got going, and the route worked ok (worked out by picking wiggly roads on the map and joining them up in a loop  ). After Liam (Dead Eye) got a bit excited and got to the meeting point an hour and a half before everyone else, and then had a very long wait as Kosmic and friend were delayed, the timing worked out pretty well, met with Slimwilly at the lunch break at Chippenham (could be some interesting video coming soon!), and blasted back along the A4 with people splitting for home as was convenient. Yes, all in all, I think it worked ok - I was a little concerned as I've been on plenty of group rides, but never planned and lead (most of) one before. Liam did an excellent lead on part that he knew pretty well too - cheers for that 
Good to meet you Paul (esetest), hope to see you on another ride soon!
And of course, I hope everyone got home safe and sound 
 
Hope someone else got some good piccies, as mine refuse to post

Thanks Nick for a good rideout and organisation today

Had a fantastic time out especially with the bike mostly behaving for once haha - hopefully I didn't slow you all down too much when leading ^^ Covered about 300~ miles in the end by the time I got home - damned winter sun blinded me this morning and this evening but at least I didn't freeze on the way back

Cheers Nick for being road captain today. And nice to meet a few other foccers. Think my total milage today was about 380 miles.

Top day all round.

Here's a few pics.

My friend Ivan dissmantling his rear end to get to his bike key that was in his bum bag that was locked under his seat.... FAIL



And lunch break by the river in Chippenham - I think.

I certainly try... definitely outclassed today though - showed on the long straights of the A4... I sort of got left behind a bit haha

If the roads are clear I can usually keep up... but you need a bit more forward planning and some extra room for overtakes on the 600 so I usually get a bit bogged down if the roads start to get busy...

Luckily my bike wasn't really in any of the pictures... "here we have several very clean and lovely thous... and a disgusting 600"

[esetest]

Thanks to Nick & the others for letting me tag along on my first organised group ride out , it was great to meet a few other  foccers , it was a good route through the Cotswolds , it  was good experience for me although I was struggling to keep up ,  following the other Fazers though the bends helped me get more out of it  . And  we  all got home safe .

[Exupnut]

And  we  all got home safe .

Amen brother esetest.

[Dead Eye]

You were doing pretty well esetest - still keeping up with them more so than me at some points... silly 600...
