or how about i meet you at the pondy then you can all suck on my castrol fumes all the way to A&D assuming you can all keep up with a RD125LC* * complete with classic original bridgestone tyres and the YHIFHS (Yamaha Hinge In Frame Handling System)
Two Questions please: Is the ride on - (departing J&S 10:00) Do I need to wrap up warm..... Cheers Paul.
weather check this morning over in Ruthin - shuffles off to look outside window I can see moel Famau which i think is a good sign so cloud is high. there is no frost on the windows which is also good for down here. roads look lightly damp off the beaten track, main roads will be dry. there is a facking cow in my garden - right the farmer has till 9am to shift it or its steak tonight for tea
Nothing to say it isn't. Wrap up if you think you need to but it's not that cold out, about 10 degrees. I'm gonna put my textiles on. I'm just leaving so see you there. Fuck it, small prob, so gonna be a bit late. Kev I'll catch you guys around the A49/A534 junction.
Nice little trot round that. Had some business to sort so was out a little longer. 192.2 miles / 14 litres x 4.546 = 62.4 mpg. Salright init! Thanks for the company guys.
Just what i needed that, nice sedate pace, good company and the new tyre is now run in. Cheers Kev :thumbsup: 113 miles / 13.13 litres @ £1.219 = 39.1 mpg bonus, up 9.1 on usual.
I am getting to old for this. I have been convinced all day that you was Andrew Mortimer. Nice to have met you. Glad you liked it.
Nice run out, good to see you all. I was surprised how dry the roads were. About 6 miles from home it started to pour down. Glad I had the textiles on. Edit. I hit 39.4mpg.
