And what an emotional experience that was, I can tell you....

A great day, met some really cool people, thanks Cas for allowing only the plumpest of riders to RV at your gaff (Oi wheres the f*****g flag...???). Nice drop of coffee from the missus as well, very well received.

Just nice to spend the day with a diverse group of people who have the love of motorcycles in common. Also nice to do some good rather than mob up and make a noise in protest, there is always time for that but I reckon you should always grab the opportunity to go for a ride with great people and raise some hard cash for a good cause.

Lots of humour there as well, countless number of classic, floor slamming one liners, too many to mention.

And so many good people who will take the time to show you their bike and let you into the history of it.

A great bunch of people to share a day with, I am humbled to be part of this today.

Thanks all, ride safe and eat well.

PS to the Jenny Craig rep I met in the reception area of the sports hall...sorry darling, I purposley gave you a false name, address and telephone number....happy hunting xx

The weather was not as cruel as I was expecting given that it was pelting down at 3am this morning. Its a real shame the crowds are not as big as they used to be and I sure hope there was plenty of dosh raised for the herricopta!

A great way to spend a Sunday morning. Cheers all
