It's better to remain silent and be thought of as a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt.

Great day out, thanks to all involved in organising and running, had a really good day (apart from a minor altercation with some chavvy mare in a clio on the motorway on the way home).

Nah, all fine, was pretty close though. She decided to pull into my lane without indicating or looking, unfortunately I was occupying that bit of my lane at the time, had to cross the white line and almost ended up in the central reservation

Re: Friendly Ride - Sunday 16th March
Another great day out - as ever it's the people who make it what it is, everyone did brilliantly, thankyou very much
Unfortunately there's now gonna have to be some time spent attacking the bike with soap and water ......
Mark, just keep telling yourself that it's envy that forces people to say things like that
...... though I seem to remember an old advertising slogan saying "you meet the nicest people on a Honda .... "

Ah well, me and Bluey had ourselves a nice day out regardless. Some fab roads courtesy of MrNom8s once again
So nice to see a few new peeps coming out to play, hopefully we will have you along for more rides over the summer months too.
