Another interesting ride out, once again, thanks, (in no particular order) to Michael & Simbo for your company.
The section between York & Malton on "White Roads" was certainly entertaining. After that, the ride was a little deflating!
Not an ice cream consumed throughout the day, however, we did share a box of fish & chips at the end in York.

Great time again guys! Many thanks to all that attended these meetings over the year! A big thanks to David for organising yet another [size=78%]enjoyable route 
we must keep up the theme of meeting up at least once a month in Wetherby! Even if it's just for breakfast and a chat or going for a little bimble for a few hours.[/size]

I'd like to thank my pit crew for yesterdays puncture repair.
After picking up a 20mm stone chipping in the rear tyre my crew ( David & Simbo) jumped in like professionals.
Simbo went straight for the coffee and David was heard to ask " has anyone got a cat shit kit" at this point I thought, shall I just ring BMW assist....No need as 1.5 cups of coffee and a length of 'cat shit' covered in glue and the Northern Monkeys where back up and riding.

That fella in the video was seriously lacking professionalism! Not one cup of coffee was consumed in that video?!?!

Not only that but,
"With the AirPro Kit, the written instructions say that once the tyre plug is inserted into the tyre using the hook-tool, the tool is turned 1/4 turn, not 1.5 turns as in the Video."
