GSF-Chris, sorry you felt you were holding us up we were quite happy to wait at junctions and stopped several times even after you left to let everyone catch up.
Thanks Colin i felt i was spoiling you day as i was so far of the pace,i will try again when i get up to speed(well a little faster i dont think i will be up to your speed for a very long time) thanks any way sounds like you had a good day
cheers
Well done Chris for giving it a try. Watch out for the big friendly rideouts, about 3 a year, the last one was last month, they are a more sedate pace.

Thanks Colin for a good ride out today, as always great to meet new and old members and put names to faces, after Halwell straight the clutch sorted itself, now to replace the old rubber, thanks everyone :D :D

Take a look at this idiot, he was lucky, he had a near off on a right hand bend between 1.45 and 1.50 mins. He claims he'd been doing clutch less gear changes, and the bike managed to jump out of 5th and into 4th gear all by itself momentarily locking the back wheel, making the bike fishtail while taking a right hand bend. Apparently he though his chain might have snapped for a moment and pulled in the clutch which freed the back wheel. He's obviously not a very good rider, keeps using his brakes deep in the corners......... Sorry I just removed the link. I just realised someones number plate was visable, not that they were doing anything wrong, but they might not be impressed.

Here's a shortened version this time, the fishtail is between 30 n 35 secs, it only lasted a second, luckily for the bloke filming it he recovered rather than coming off.
