Weather is looking good Andy and plenty of people are talking about coming so should be a good do.

Good stuff... looking forward to the gathering.... hopefuly there will be plenty of overnight campers

Oh dear what changed?
The supposed heatwave that was to last through October has buggered off in favour of maybe....rain....here we go again I,m not panicking....yet

Bleeding incredible innit? promising Sunshine all the way then a few days short it all goes tits up.

On my own part, it's like Deja (bleedin) voo..

In 2013 going to the Southern rally with the intention of going on to France afterwards, every bleeding thing broke on the bike for weeks leading up to the event, and even on the morning of the France trip things were still breaking, eventually leading to an aborted journey..

So last Saturday after great day out (to Granpa Greenes) I seized the bike on the M62 (again).. So with just over 2 days to go, I've still got an engine on the bench in pieces.  

Hopefully, it will be back in the frame tonight minus Cyls etc, so I am still on target to go, but if it doesn't come to fruition...


I'll see you at the weekend!

Aww man.. Janey says it pissed down all day Saturday Hope it didn't spoil things too much for everyone.

We had a few spots only although it threatened all day, Glad I went South though..

Glad you had a good time Gra.
Pissed down doesn,t even begin to cover it weather couldn,t have been any worse I,d post pics but my phone got waterlogged

Yep pissed down from setting off to squires in the am right until we pulled into the carpark at about half four...then it stopped

Still a hardcore of about 20 or so bikes made the Saturday rideout. All bikes made it without serious problems. Wettest ride out ever

Great weekend though

Not a great turnout Gra..... but to be expected as the weather forecast was spot on for a change... a good weekend though despite the weather and poor attendance. beers in the bar from 5.00 pm until 2.00am !!
