I left just before your PM Neil, sorry mate. We thought you'd be coming via all the cafes, so assumed you'd get to Bourton about midnight

Home again with a cuppa, only 20 mins or so for me. Nice to meet everyone again, as always. Sausage and chips were nice

Windy on the A429, exposed up on there, but no significant rain.
Parted with red98 on A40 about 3pm. Hope everyone gets home safe.

Back home and warming up with some coffee. Definitely a lot more wind on the way back so was taking it pretty steady - sorry if I was holding you up esetest!

Unfortunately, we got somewhat soaked about 10-15 miles out of Bristol where it just got worse the closer we got. Ah well, hopefully it will have washed off most of the dirt from the journey up :P

bristol banger · « **Reply #88 on:** 06 April 2014, 04:35:58 pm »

Back home, bike washed

esetest · « **Reply #89 on:** 06 April 2014, 04:42:25 pm »

Back home , good to put more names to faces , ride up was better than ride home due to the strong crosswinds and rain so took it nice and steady .

red98 · « **Reply #90 on:** 06 April 2014, 04:45:49 pm »

Thats me back in the warm......wet and windy ride home but good to be out.....nice fish and chips

Piccy's ,,bloody piccy's,,,we were eating fish and chips and drinking bloody good coffee,,no time for bloody piccies..

I had a brill ride back home,real dry roads nearly back to Leominster then it started to drizzle and i washed my bike in the rain,,its drying in the garage..

Nice to meet the Bristol boys,,i even got to try Devilsyam's FZ1s out up the high street

Anyway them American tourists needed waking up a bit

Me home now. good ride around Actually rather pleasant weather rained a bit around 4pm but not enough to do my hair. then about 7-30 8ish entering London it rained a bit harder but then nowt to cause discomfort.
Returned home about 10pm nice and dry.

P.S Didn't stop at any cafes Apart from a petrol station where I suffered a sausage roll.
