Don't worry I don't think any of us will be out if its wet

Bunch of fair weather pansies

I went to the Peak District 2 years ago and it rained so much my waterproofs decided they'd done all they could and stopped being waterproof.

Glad to see I'm not the only one that doesnt see the point in waterproofs unless you're going to use them!

Same has happened to me on the way back south from Norfolk

Oh I commute in all weathers including snow, Its just no fun going out for a blast on a weekend in the rain

We've had enough near misses in completely dry weather on ocuk bike meets

Cheeky bump

ElliorR · 22 Apr 2015 at 18:24

Unfortunately I had to cancel going to the Tiger 800 forums mega meet so I'm up for this.

famas · 22 Apr 2015 at 19:16

It's almost that for me but that's part of the fun of riding.

What are you riding a 125?

Its about an hour and a half in a car, we will be there in an hour if that on the bikes

Just looked it up on Google maps and yeah fair enough I see what you mean

ElliorR · 24 Apr 2015 at 10:16

Ignore google maps. Recently it told me it'd take just over 2 hours to get somewhere when in reality it took me just over an hour. I got there really early.

TallPaul_S · 24 Apr 2015 at 10:26

It normally takes into account traffic, which isn't an issue for us

Kreeeee · 24 Apr 2015 at 10:35

Take Google's time without traffic and take off 10-20% and that's how long it used to take me to get around the UK

Fireskull · 24 Apr 2015 at 10:45

dsb do you know the way to Rykas from Loomies? because last time we headed box hill way we got lost, partly my fault...

DanF · 24 Apr 2015 at 11:43

bagsy a sit on your 1290 dsb
