Well 2 weeks to go and its here yippee :ymparty:

I will probably be tucking into a coffee and muffin from MacDonald’s then I will be filling up at Newton Abbot Sainsbury’s at 8am. I will be parking across from the exit of the petrol station in one of the long car bays.

I haven’t met most of you guys in here so for those that don’t know me I will be the little fat get in black and white leathers straining to fit around the midriff after a rather eventful winters eating, with tasteful matching blue boot, oh and an old ZX10, Probably clutching a cup of coffee.

Will be leaving 0815 sharpish to meet our esteemed team leader for around 830ish.

Hope to see some of you soon

Sorry for being such an outertown newbie but what's this ride all about?
Is it a big national ride or a local private ride?
Must be a good one because everyone seems so excited.

Well the 'Friendly' is a ride out at posted speed limits, so not the warp speed 'progressive' rides that others can be, but its based on those who use this forum (unless you want to bring friends ;) ) not national. Its a fun day out for all abilities and a good chance to put names to avatars :D :D .

Like badger said, it's just a social day that caters for all abilities and asks egos to stay at home.

The 'friendly' rides came about after noting that not all riders want to try to go back in time, sometimes they want to relax.
also that not everyone (my good lady) likes corners.

Its a bit of fun that seems to appeal.

Evening all, just joined here. I'm a friend of Danny's and I just found out I've got the day off this sunday. Not sure what to do, so I thought I'd go for a ride somewhere...
