Sweet ride guys, amazing weather and a good bunch of guys. Interesting road... Took a knock to my confidence when the front slipped a bit on the gravel lines. I'm sweet with gravel, and sweet with tarmac, but when there is tarmac with lines of gravel in the middle of the lane it sucks!

Some of the melted tar on the way back was damn slick too haha!

Chur chur.

Awesome ride guys, cheers!

Haha yeah those gravel lines are nasty, especially when your cranked right over and committed to turning. Not to mention massive dips and ridges everywhere.

Good to meet all of you.

Brilliant ride today falks. Was nice meeting you old and new friends.

next time I got in mind going down sh22 and then another 40k of other unexplored twisties.

any takers for next week some time - maybe wednesday...

Sorry me and jafa had to shoot in the middle, but it was worth it - you should see how I got my nails done at the bike show. I'll take you to have your nails done after the next ride if anyone is keen.

Coco nice pics.

Mint ride guys, i'm starting to like sh22, specially when riding it in a northerly direction.

Choco, when you reckon you'll be able to upload some of the video you took?

Oh no! Not my horrible lines haha! I shed a bit of the rust on the way back and hit the corners a lot better thankfully

Mine weren't that great either on the way down, the main reason i want to see the vids is to hear what my bike sounds like when you're following it.

You read my mind

Was just thinking today that I should take Wed off and go for a ride. MetVUW forecast is looking good.
