You’re right there JuCee, it was like powerboat racing on the M6 last night, I was like a drowned rat by the time I got to Preston and by the time I got back to Stoke again I could have kept goldfish in my boots, lots of rather large ponds on the roads too, horrible!

North Lakes and Manchester

North Lakes both ride.

Mrs preferably when it’s dry although she’s been wet on many occasions (maybe that’s a different thread though)

Mr 365

- 2 days bad weather (too much snow or ice)

- 20 days holiday (non biking hols)

- 1 xmas day (tied to the kitchen)

-1 Boxing Day ( on the piss)

- 8 hangover days (can’t ride)

- 20 wet weekends (can’t be arsed)

- 1 birthday (getting pampered)

= 292 days riding ..... Christ I’m a part timer

Morning all

Just stumbled across this forum and thought I'd say hi. I'm Alan and I'm currently finishing off my Dakar special. So I'm hoping to get it out and on the road in the next week or so. If you wanna meet for a social ride out let me know. I'd be happy to meet any sex or persuasion

Hope to speak to someone soon!

Try Holingworth Lake, some nice quiet places away from the main road, park up at the wine press or the car park just beyond it where the visitors centre is. Walk out the back of the car park along the dirt road.
