Beats my 255 miles, Alan.

Thanks Brian for the interesting ride. It was quite testing, and I was knackered by the time home destination was reached.

Nice to meet you Bob and all the swbikers crew.

Queue to see Mcpint aka John Mcguinness wasn't worth it. Leon Haslam was a nice bloke to talk to. Shiny bikes got mine and Roy's wallets twitching. There may be a news bulletin soon :80: :80: :80:

Thanks to Brian for yet another good rideout route - well, the bit I did with you all from Jonesey's cafe anyway. Good also to meet two others of the 'The Grey Ones' persuasion (aka The Usual Suspects) in the shape of Roy and Alan, plus Clown Trousers Bob, a potential new G. O. recruit. Young Duncan was outnumbered 5 to 1.
