I had a great time and yes Paul I did grow some balls!

Just felt a bit like Cinderella when we had to part company at Windemere but thats the penalty for living in God's country (Geordieland)I guess.

Hope we can do it again soon.

ray thanks for a fantastic day and the bbq was to die for!!!!!!!!!! Love the pics; Keith specially likes the one of the thorn amonst the roses. He also says thanks, he was a little nervous of going but also had a fantastic time as everyone is friendly and welcoming. Looking forward to doing it again sometime soon.

Thanks Jane & Keith, I am glad you enjoyed yourselves and Margaret says she is glad everybody enjoyed the BBQ.

Look forward to catching up with you two again, Keith has got to loose that Bandit though

Maybe, just maybe this will give you butterflies in your stomach

Ray you have seen the size of me and I can assure you that I will travel anywhere for a good "brew" as long as we are talking beer (or red wine) and not tea!

Not a problem Paul, Red wine would be my first choice a nice Merlot I picked up on my travels in France, I bought about 12 cases of the stuff 1.5 ltr bottles, not that I like the stuff

Hi Kev

You missed a really good ride out, but I am sure we will be riding up in the Lake District in the very near future.

9 bikes including my own, sorry 8 bikes and one Bandit it was a little hard keeping us all together but I enjoyed the run and I think everybody else did from the posts
