That's it, I ain't goin' to THAT rally!:shutup:

But just back from the BtoB rally, the world smallest so far but what fun - trying to ride a 10-speed bike with no tyres on the rims on not-so-smooth grass - with the handle-bars at an angle to the forks, :eek5:those stupid 'ski' things for five people where you have to all move your feet left-right-left etc AT THE SAME TIME while drunk:crazy:

Good music, (although Copperhead Road back-to-back three times was pushing it, evenfor me), fireworks, an old naked guy trying to ride his Yamaha tourer and dropping it twice...yep, fun was had by all.:woohoo:

And due to the small turn-out a free breakfast was had by all.

Wanted to go to this one but after seeing the condition of my rear tyre when I got back from M.A.T.E.S. I decided that riding is a no-go until I can get a new one put on.

current one is radial and right at its limit so not taking chances. Damn lucky I got back from Gore with it like that.

Lesson learnt there: not to be so negligent in checking me tyres and check them in the daylight. doesn't look quite so bad when sitting in the garage.
