      What a day! Stayed pretty dry in fact! Wet gear worked, boots didn't leak, visor stayed clear, a little damp around the neck warmer but not to bad all in all!!

      We are crazy you know! LOL!! I don't mind the wet to much but it was bloody slippery out there! Bit I liked was the 24+ bike rev up's at the lights in town load is good.
      Was a great day, had a few laughs now I gotta clean the bike which is the thing I hate about riding in the rain!

      Brilliant day, great people, great fun and a great cause.

      yES, I wss wetter than a fishes wet bits but have managed to dry the gear out (just).

      Events like this make me really proud of my biker brothers and sisters, thanks all for sharing the day.

      Mom was right, the looks we got going down Queen Street did brighten up peoples faces on such a dull day, and Spyder Clause with the crimbo music blaring out was priceless.

      vERY VERY VERY proud to have been part of that, great day.

      Thanks to everyone at Cyclespot, the coffee guy, my fellow crazy bastard bikers and especiaqlly Phil who made me realise how lucky it is to have yer nuts intact

      Missing you already
