Would've liked to have tagged along as token elder on this one but apparently I have to 'expect a knee operation sometime in the spring' say the NHS. I'll be hors de combat for quite a while after that I suppose . Basically, both the Sprint and me will be sorned.

Just wanted to say thanks to all who turned out today - Brian, Alan, Rik, Duncan, Nick, Jim, Dave, Art and not forgetting Gus who rode up to Wellington to see us off.

Last bike night for this year on Thursday. It's looking a tad iffy weather wise, but unless it's tipping down I shall make the effort - might be good practise for this Sunday!

Folks: Ride and route details added to my opening post.

O.k. here's the lowdown as told to me by someone I know who's been in your situation: On a French (or presumably any foreign) registered vehicle you may have to pay up to 30% of the value of the vehicle, you also will have to get it 'road safety' inspected and registered, then you will have to jump ...
