Brilliant to see some lower cc bikes join us to, proves you don't need a mega sports bike to come out and play :D
Hope to see you all again soon, before Llandow hopefully...

Well done Simon!!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed the trip. A bit achy as not used to the old girl yet. Thanks to all organisers and arm-bands (-|
