Sorry Martin and all. We have just received an invite to the Brother in laws wedding on the 17th :cry: . Didn't even know he was thinking or getting married. My wife would kill me if I didn't attend. I'd rather be on a ride out.
At least I get a weekend holiday in La Roche.

Now the wife is in hospital, Am being sent to the wedding on my own. It's such a shame I have to ride all own instead of flying ;) . Leaving on the midnight ferry. Great to have a understanding wife, she doesn't want me to ride 1600 miles in a weekend. So I have orders to make it a week. I did say she is more important than her bother but insisted I go.

Have a brilliant meet up tomorrow. Lots of pictures with names please

Just got home, thank god. The traffic was very heavy. I think i was called a though names filtering at 50mph :mrgreen:

So 4 of us made it to the meet. So a big thank you to BoB21, Glenn and MikeS for making the time to come, thank you guys :thumb:

We had a good look around the Museum, and i was a bit miffed as i was looking forward to seeing there Gen1 Hayabusa. Well i'm a pratt, wrong Museum D'oh :lol: .

Will post some photo later of the bikes in the Museum.

BTW i got my MPG (sat-nav reading) down to 54mpg over the 206 miles i did today. Also going to refit the oem exhaust before any other long high speed ride i do. The droning got a bit much.
