Folks,

As we set off on the Saturday run, Ryan's wife, Helen, took some video of us all leaving the hotel car park, and asked me to post it for your viewing pleasure. Click on the picture below to view the video on YouTube:

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

Excellent weekend as always great to catch up after so long, K and the whippets got home early afternoon after witnessing a car roll on its roof just after Newtown on the A483, 2 cars with young lads racing by the look of it other than that all good. I was glad to get home sort of riding on auto pilot from Abergavenny but great to have done some good mileage as before the weekend I’d only ridden 170 miles all year. Looking forward to the next event and we both agreed the Hand was a brilliant venue good food and hospitality (but if the band could turn it down to 10) all the better.
Btw I even enjoyed riding in that little shower :mrgreen:

Turned out to be an expensive weekend Peter, can you complain to your bike kit manufacturer that their kit leaking broke your phone?

Great to see you after so long!

having said that they were approaching biblical at one point!

To be honest it makes me proud to be Welsh as they beat those girly Scottish sprinkles I've experienced over the years on the NC :)
