I thought Washington was a bit quiet,

 

Bet you saw this and got distracted

 

Annual, I thought it was the first one, this year, I was expecting another next month, Ive booked time off.

 

Has anyone mentioned the welcome pack supplied by Dougie maps route breakdowns and another t-shirt for the thread dodgy t-shirt spotted ,we were swore to secrecy till dilli and MRO got there .Thank
You.

 

No!

 

Got back about 2pm
Sitting in the garden after a shower and wor lass had some cans in the fridge for my return she’s a good un
Curry from the Indians for tea
Don’t think I’ll be cleaning my BPOS I’ve decided I like the dirty look
First tin finished time for another

 

Mmmmmm

 

Great few days away. Me n Dilli had a blast riding up, weather fantastic, riding dukes Pass with AndyC yesterday was a highlight, and a belter of a ride down with AndyC today. Triumph need to build a big V-twin, they are awesome.

Did some silly speeds down the old Carlisle road, next to M74. . Stopped at Wanlockhead on road down, just for the photo.

T-Shirt from Dougie was a nice surprise, thanks.

 

Forgot to say, good to meet old faces again, especially Andy Pandy, that is, his is, definitely an old face !!! ,

and good to meet new one's - Lexy, jockstew and Kenwalburn, it was a pleasure to spend time with all you guy's

 

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and tip my hat to Dougie D for putting it all together.I also enjoyed meeting and being in the company of all you lad,s which really made it fun to do.Sorry I missed you at the Winnock, Dougie........well done mate

 

Moulin, Pitlochry...........not sure what the guy on the roof was up to tho'

 

I bet he/she cant wait to see you again too!!
Lots of slurp's!

 

Just woke up ! Was it all a dream ?
Fantastic sunny weather in Scotland more or less all week, must have been dreaming !
No not really. Got home about 1:30pm, had a cuppa, had a kip.
What a week eh ? Great roads, weather, scenery, beer, food and best of all great fellow bikers to have fun with. Thanks to Dougie, you really put a lot into that and you gave me some laughs (maybe i'll tell more in Wales) and thanks to all who helped in trying to find a mirror. Thanks also to James (Sprinter) in searching out the engineering works so we could get my mirror modified and refitted.

Well what a fantastic trip! Thanks Dougie D for organising the best roads, the stunning scenery & the best Scottish weather. Shame I missed out onThursdays rideout hunting the highlands for new tyres
Trip home was pretty uneventful 454 miles door to door (who said you can't tour on a Thruxton R?) I say uneventful, ask Rich about his spectacular dismount from the tiger at the services . Great to put names to faces. Looking forward to the next one.

 

Send them this way then.

 

Paint. You'll find it in your Windows Accessories drop down folder. Resize button next to Crop iirc.

 

Awesome tour. Great organisation, great weather, great roads, great views, great bikes, great ale, great company, great fish suppers. Sore arse.

 

If you have PowerPoint on your Windows PC, you can also use it to sample down a picture. Insert the picture into a blank page. Right click on it, and select 'Save as a Picture.' Save it as a JPEG (or other format) to whatever folder you want it in. PowerPoint automatically samples the picture for screen resolutions. I just did one and (with no input from me) it took the original photo from ~5.5 MB to 304 KB.
