+1.. Thanks everyone for a most enjoyable weekend!  8)  Especially David for organising and leading the ride on Saturday Image


Here's a few photo's I took on our breaks between riding, Also one of the pesky sports bikes inconveniencing everyone by needing to fuel up every 100 mile  ;)


The gathering for the start.

First pit stop at Broadway Tower.

Great weekend. Good to meet you all and to put faces to names.
Weather a bit hot but better than rain.
I'm sure that the pillions had a good chat as well.

Arrived home from Tewkesbury at 11:30 this morning, after having covered 780 miles over the 4 days we were away.

Shirley & I both thoroughly enjoyed our weekend, great riding & company too, thanks to you all for attending.

The POI's suggested by MacJ for Saturday's ride out, were all well worth visiting, especially Fladbury where the "jamboree" was most entertaining.

Based on the fact that geographically, Ingleby Barwick & Fareham are 300 miles apart, how about Oadby, SE of Leicester, looks a perfect halfway point.
