Half an hour?

Would've only just finished talking shit, taking pics and thinking about what to order

Only just learnt not to share a number!

probably be better off adding a few hundred k's more and then make it a 2 day jaunt to be honest

but since Mrs Yod is due to pop

in 12 days, it's all a bit of a pipe dream for me, for a while anyway

Not with Andrew anyway.

I suppose you gotta expect a little bit of greif when you go to places where the waitress's mother is her sister and her father is a ram.

Are you gonna post your suggestions, BR?

I have to give mum 8 hours notice, before the ride so she can sleep on it and I can get up early and go so she can't change her mind

, just like last Sunday

Thinking I might have to miss this one, it could be a bit much on the 250cc's of Korean goodness.

**cowboyz** · 12th January 2011, 09:20

I concur, the Korean goodness held up just fine. Can't miss the gorge, it's mint! Now just have to work out if it's a day trip or an overnighter, dates, and which bike to take. Day is probably preferable for me and Mo at this stage but hmmmmm

do it after the 28/1. I'll have my license back then and I'm real sick of reading about these rides and not joining in!!!!
