What sort of pace are you aiming for on your ride to the national? Is it suitable for some fat git on a 33bhp bike :confused: :D

My bikes badly wounded but I don't think it's 33bhp yet.... :hitler:
You'd be fine I imagine Raven, we're thinking of giving the motorways a bit of a miss....But I don't understand why you would want to start from the Ace..long way round for you.
We could meet you on the way if you wanted...although there's quite a few from your part of the island going...up to you mate.
Originally I was up in London on the Wednesday so it would of made a bit more sense, but the person I was seeing up there broke their leg so thats off now :rolleyes:. Enjoy the ride there anyway :thumb:

What route will you be taking down. That's the sort of time I will be heading off from Oxford, if it's not to much hassle I could meet you somewhere on the way, unless that makes it all to complicated.:confused:
EDIT: I will now be leaving around 10.00 - 10.30 so ignore the above ,

Depending on the work situation. I may join you...otherwise I'll peg it down (as it were) after work on Thursday. More likely to be an evening solo ride down though I imagine.
Save me a space in the Rykas Cliquey Snorey Corner :D :thumbup:
It's looking like I won't be going to the National now.:(
I've had no luck sorting the the Alp engine.
Arranged to view a bike tomorrow...Fella said that suited him better than today, then phoned this evening to tell me it was sold...not happy but not surprised either....seems to be the way people operate nowadays.....Not much integrity about
I accept it....'bird in the hand' and all that......
Anyway.....probably blows my chance of the National.
I'm not done yet though.....:)

My other bike is free, not for off-roading but everything else.
Thanks for the offers chaps (where else would this happen, eh? :p).
I must, however decline....I could never be comfortable with someone elses bike...I couldn't enjoy it.....So thanks :thumbup: :hitler:...but.....
I haven't given up....just don't want to fall in the trap of buying a bike in a hurry.....
'course, I have noticed that near Dartmoor there's an adventure style bike for sale........get meself there early on... buy the bike unseen.....nip round to the camp site and set up tent..simple....(except for the tent bit :rolleyes:)
Beginning to lose it :toothy5:

But I have come off rather stupendously since then myself. Mind you, with the Hagon shock on, we'd have to get him some high heels so he could reach the ground:D

I'll have declare myself a non runner at this event......Unlikey that I'm gonna make it now unless I have rush of blood and leap on the Alp (possible).:p
I believe also that Steve (Devonne) also has had bike problems....(dead starter button if anyone wants to pm him...already mentioned side stand switch to him).:(
I suspect Soho won't be leaving at this time from here also but who knows..he's like the Scarlet Pimpernel...:confused:
P.S. I DID leave a 'sell me this ' note on a 'T' reg black @ tonight in the West End (It doesn't seem to move much).
Is this a fat lady singing? http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/cool/cool0012.gif

If it is the one in Margaret street then it only disappears from there a couple of times a week.

I tried it the other day...that noise is getting worse......I'd hate it to lock up suddenly......I'll have be sensible....:confused:

Yeah...It is that one...I know it doesn't get out much. [EDIT; Fella emailed me.....nice of him.....not for sale..pointed him to forum]
There's another one in Belgravia (must be as posh as me)....All tarted up with stickers, lagging on the crash bars and Italian flag sticker......NO NUMBER PLATE, although it does seem to change parking bays regularly, so seems to be used......someone on here.....:confused:
