Morning I'm Up and on my way

Right just going to get suited up see you all in a bit

was a good ride.........good turnout and nice clear empty roads.

all we need is for the sheep to learn the highway code and we're laughing

note to fragmites............MUST TRY HARDER

i think i might see the sense in these early rides....i'm nearly convinced

That was quick, thought you might have stayed out longer

good ride.... put it this way, 85 miles and didnt overtake a single car

i'm off to put some more ice patches on my nuts, bloody bumpy roads and solid suspension

Excilent ride out thanks Si. Think I might be getting a bit quicker. Sorry for those behind me that I held up or just thought best not over take me as I'm shit at holding lines. but I raely should have gone to bed by now.

What can I say? Not my best performance

However thanks to you, Simon and Colin for your advice, I'll just have to keep at it I guess!

Good to see the rest of you too, quite a turn out considering the start time

It's only a confidence thing Just try riding a route you know in say 3rd but stay off the brakes using the engine braking to slow you for corners. Everytime you apply the brakes in a corner it upsets the suspension.

couldn't agree more......it's the big 'C ' WORD (confidence for those that were wondering)

i'm not yet 100% happy on the r1 but u have to keep plugin away and with time it WILL come.

i am no riding god and i will never be the next rossi but as long as U r happy with ur pace and u come back in one piece then to me that is a good ride out

Thanks for the ride out today.Nice to meet some more of you from here. Realised just how slow I was compared to most of you. Good fun even trying to avoid the sheep and ponies
