    Nice little write up ! Good stuff
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Ditto on both counts. Good to see the write-up! Didn't mention the fantastic riding conditions though

    Now that's a great article.

    Recognition of motorcyclists making an unselfserving gesture (to the uneducated public eye anyway) without a hint of WRB whinging.

    You should read it again....

    The ride also gained around 200 signatures for a petition calling for a moratorium on cheese-cutter wire median barriers, which are unpopular with many motorcyclists.
