    A ride to Manfeild

    Went for a ride yesterday with a few other riders to watch glen race on mansfeild. Wow my boss, what a guy, he lent me his bonniville to ride up with them all while he took out his tripple. Lets see, a ducatti, Sv and a boullevard all along for the ride. Now im a sports bike man myself but I would definately own a bonniville, very nice to ride, even in the pissing down rain.
    We reached our destination roughly bout 11ish i spose and watched the action, and yes Glen done exceptionally well, He won both 600ss rounds and came 2nd in both F1 rounds, well worth the trip in not the most desireable weather. We got back to pram and stopped in the coma bar for a pint and to empty the water outta my boots, awesome day

    Hey Aaron - was a great ride even with the rain and blind drivers on the return home. Next time i have to ride behind the bonnie - remind me to wear my ear plugs. Shes a gorgeous beast - but the huge bonnie noise was...... deafening

    Hope you got your boots dried out

    it was a great ride and nice to have you along - someone else to chase and try and keep up with! Always nice just hanging out at the back folling a line of bikes twisting and turning, rumbling and purring, stopping and starting. Had so much fun as always.

    Hope to see you out again soon. My boots were bloody soggy too!
