    Nw Ride to Ponderosa

    Hudders, Paul-S, Pete and me went down to J 15 M6 to meet DC and then rode due West destination the Ponderosa Cafe at the top of the Horsehoe Pass out of LLangollen.

    But first I remembered a little lane coz Pauls bike is just too damn clean


    At a stop on the lane DC made the fatal mistake of pulling up behind Hudders



    Not a happy Bunny

    Off we went after a few words DC was smiling again

    And we got Pauls bike dirty just look at those fork protectors



    We got to Plessy Plassau (spelling ) for the smokers to have a smoke



    Then on to the Ponderosa for Steak and Kidney pie



    DC needed to polish his helmet



    After lunch we went down a small lane behind the cafe to Worlds end and then to LLandegla Moors found a very slippy water crossing en route



    Damn that mans fast







    We had a play around on some old quarry workings DC has some video footage which will be posted later

    Hudders better side and his way of saying goodbye



    A great day out Thanks guys, allways a pleasure to ride with you

    Looks like you all had a grand day out.

    DC & Hudders having words - surely not! If they spend much more time "having words", they'll have to get married!

    Thought about joining you when I read Frad's post, but had important work to do .................
