    Afternoon all,

    Bit bored waiting for 5pm so I can go home so thought I would enquire what everyone is up to this weekend, tell me to bugger off if I'm being nosey though!!

    Is my weekend off work so I have a whole two days to do whatever I want, well saying that I am going to cricket on Sunday with my dad to watch Lancashire, so I think Saturday is going to be the day I go out on the bike for a really decent ride, had plenty of short journeys since buying the bike but nothing substantial so looking forward to just getting out and riding for a day and not having anywhere in particular to go to.

    Anyone got a more thrilling weekend than that planned? :)

    Tony

    Epping forest cafe's pretty good, and there's a fair few decent rides around there too.......bloody busy if the weather's nice though. Good for bike spotting.

    I'll be spending the weekend trying to speed time up a bit until 1st September.....

    I'll be riding 'the beast' down to Padstow, meeting the wife and kids down there (not sure how I got her to agree to that, but I did!), I think I may get lost a few times on the way down ;)
    It will be the longest ride I've ever undertaken, it will definitely be a lot of fun!
    Going to be spending 10 days down there, hopefully i'll get out on the bike a little while I'm there.

    MOT number 17 (if I counted correctly!) for my 'old faithful' Trident 900 of 1995 vintage tomorrow. :cool: I will soon have had it for 20 years! :eek: Still can't come up with a good enough reason to sell it - and I do have a reasonably fertile imagination! I did enjoy having an '02 Daytona 955i CE alongside it though :) ... until I had to sell it! :(

    Oddly enough I'll be working on a song inspired by a phrase used in another thread ;)

    Then I'll be going to the pub :)

    Stay cool chaps :cool:

    Bit of excitement in our house this weekend.
    My wife traded her Street Triple of a Tiger 800 yesterday so we've got a weekend of getting to know it.
    Plenty of mileage with a bit of luck.
    Got a 4 day weekend as well :cool::D

    Well I hope you all enjoy yourselves out on your bikes :mad::( - I'll be waiting for a delivery of a new inner tube. Picked up a plasterboard screw yesterday. I could just fix the tube but tbh I think it's getting a bit old.

    Probably won't come for weeks :confused::eek:

    I'm off to a barbie this afternoon , but tomorrow I was hoping to go for a rideout somewhere , don't know where yet though . Next week I was going to go over to Ireland to the Ulster gp but I'm a bit tight for spare cash & am currently talking myself out of going . I want to go to the Bulldog bash next weekend as well , but definately can't do both o_O

    New MOT duly acquired (it is number 18 so it would seem, after a recount!) this afternoon, followed by a celebratory ride dodging the showers ... but not where they had been! :oops: Bike now needs a bloody good wash! :mad:
