claycraft   10 #170 Posted March 26, 2005 Originally posted by msbehavin well if any of you guys feel that the ride out could have been made that little bit more perfect by having a friendly, chatty pillion with you who would have bought you a pint and a bag of chips (dont say I'm not generous!!!) then please see here  http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=32097  (she said, hopefully)  Oh dear, and here's me minus the pillion pegs Now where's my spanners:hihi: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bikertec   12 #171 Posted March 27, 2005 Originally posted by claycraft Mick if you had stuck with it a few seconds longer we stopped at a pub about 50yrds down the road (hot and non alcoholic drinks only:thumbsup: ). We then carried on through Bamford, along the res, snake pass, back into town through crosspool and another short run (memory fails me exact route before heading back to Norton.  Good ride, enjoyed it:clap: Thanks all.  Rob K1 GSXR. Opps sorry mate thought you were heading home. Next time I will stop for a drink with you:thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

msbehavin   10 #173 Posted March 27, 2005 Yep - it expires after 2 years - hence me having to start at Square 1 again!. I did mine with MCT at Norton - great bunch of guys and a great laugh. Troubloe is - my helmet still fits but the leathers might now be a bit tight!!!!  Have been on the back of an R1 for an hour long ride out Lincs way and back so dont know if you can get more uncomfortable than that can ya??? Pillion foot pegs def preferred tho!!!  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

G_SuperBikes   10 #177 Posted March 29, 2005 Hi guys and girls! Glad everyone enjoyed it. The ridout was ace. We DID stop at a pub, then continued for the second half of the ride!  There may well be another rideout before our next big EVENT, so keep yours peepers wide open and we'll let you know. (You can also drop us an email at [email protected] and we'll email you when ever there's a ride / event planned so you don't miss it).  The next event is a rideout to British Superbikes at mallory park on April 24th 2005. Meeting at 10am sharp at The Norton pub. Should be a great day!  Cheers P http://www.globalsuperbikes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Billie   10 #179 Posted April 14, 2005 Many thanks to SHarper, bikertec and scanman, soon as we get another decent weekend I'll tootle off, yeah I'll be careful, not a speed freak (much), you guys take care too. I feel such a fraud when biker dudes do the nod on their R1's or ducatis - I nod back thinkin 'oo how nice, I'm just a girl though' plus I'm only on a Yam 660 tenere (aka - a tractor).
