ptolemyx just to say apologies for not promoting this ride on Facebook and WhatsApp. Was my wedding anniversary on 18th and was away from the weekend and missed this post. Sorry ^#(^

Hope you had fun in the sun shine

Twas a nice bimble showing the guys some less well travelled roads as well as some of the actual planned for roads :mrgreen:

I do not recommend full on headbutting a pheasant at 45mph. Fortunately it hit a very dense part of my anatomy so no real harm done. Thanks Steve for taking the guys on to the ride end at Tivvy from my gaff, was probably wise for me to stop as the stars were still buzzing a bit round me 'ed. I may have whiplash though from where it tried to tear my head off...don't worry I will still be on Nicks bimble next weekend B-)

That's a heavy bird , probably twice the weight of a pigeon that I clouted with my head last year. Hope you recover well Brian.

Roy, hope you'll have fork seal sorted for Sunday and with a bit of luck Phil will be joining us ? Looks like we may get some rain but only light showers. Looking forward to seeing you all.

Yep, looking good for a triumphant Trumpet turnout on Sunday; guaranteed no push starts required nowadays but can't vouch for what else will decide to test my patience - unless it's you lot :)): .

Yup you can call Sunday a test ride for Phil and his Triumph with the "new" engine and me with a rebuilt front fork; will the repair work?

How much cardboard and guttering did you use? If it's not an even 50/50 mix then I'd say possibly.
