It'll only be the 9th if rain stops play on the 25th.

Have a look at the other RTTB runs to Work out what it is.

This gets asked most years.

We wanted to do something different for a Rideout that would make it memorable, maybe for a different reason to usual runs.

Firstly the traffic - what traffic ??? No deliveries, tourists, commuters, bimblers etc, limited work traffic, it's the perfect time of day to be out on a bike.

It feels naughty - this is what I hear every year. Going OUT when normals are tucked up and party goers are on their way home - we are on our way off to play for the day.

Clear roads - yummy. It's not 'Head down, Arse up' riding, in fact it's quite civilised. Everybody stays together. Besides, it's mid shift for the old Bill so pulling 20-30 bikers for excessive speeding would either by a nightmare for them or a dream and true.

It's a laugh.
