Dazza, Midden,

do you want to meet at Nells around 8.00am? Should be able to grab a bite to eat and still make Box Hill for 9.00am.

Mtread, want to join us? we could meet at the BP station at the Fortune of War about 7.40am. then onto Nells to meet the others

Re: LOFO's july 5 ride out - HarryHornby - 03-07-15

if it all works out ok with the RAC and garage I could be back in the game for Sunday..... watch this space.

According to google maps about 45miles & 45mins by M25, but like you said what is the negative fudge factor for Red bikes and 600s at that.

Being on a Super Slippy Supersonic SILVER bike I'll be there before I leave so no problem. We'll just have to watch out for hedges and the like with your yellow hedge trimmer :rollin

10/10 for effort H........mines in bits this morning, riding home yesterday the chains making a hell of a racket.got an R6 shock to fit so thought I would do two in one and take the swing arm out and remove the chain, got one stiff link, cant believe just the one stiffy can make so much noise.so de-greased, soaked in WD and good brushing with mrs reds toothbrush....its ok, shes gone to work Wink

......cleaned up well and have just about managed to work the link free...left it to soak in some engine oil while I try and remember what I did with the shock :o

scorching hot here in south bucks after a stormy night...looks cooler tomorrow with a very small chance of a light shower late afternoon.........

Drat, story of my life, have to be in Newmarket 8.30am that day!
Been to Cheddar Gorge recently, stopping at Loomies for breakfast, Sammy Millers is great, wish I was joining you, been there several times and never tire of it, especially when in good company!
Was at Thruxton yesterday on the flying Fazer 8, not a track day as such, as they don't do bike days there any more, but an IAM Ride Skills Day for £120, 6 x 20 min track sessions, with 6 x 20 min classroom sessions and 6 x 20 mins rest break plus an hour for lunch!
Fabulous long track, just over 3 miles and very technical, just loved it, non IAM members are welcome too! Covered 300 miles in all, 100 of them on track so an amazing day with endless tea, coffee and water plus lunch voucher thrown in. Bonus is you don't have to wear leathers, just normal protective gear, if anyone is interested will find out next date, they have also done Goodwood.
Just waiting for track photo's to be posted http://kellydowlingphotography.com/proofing/
Enjoy a great day 8)
