Glyn, I will be going and i'm sure Graham will be there, plenty of others
were keen prior to the dissapearance of the old myfreeb site, so hopefully it should be well attended. Will try and get there for 10.30-11.00am.
All the best,

Hi,
It went well, there were five of us there, Hector (Dave), Trixynut (Dave) and Graham whose alias, I believe is RedRex but I can't check because the other site is down (surprise - not), Hector’s mate Lee (on a Kawasaki) and me. The weather was good, sunshine and warm but blowy. I got a right blasting going over the Cotswolds on the way home. Some serious leaning and that was just on the straights to avoid oncoming traffic. We drank some coffee and listened to each others exhaust notes (all were very much nicer than mine which is standard.) I got some sound advice on throttle control and managed to get out of the carpark without doing anything too stupid (which was a bonus) Trixynut demonstrated what happens to your pipe when Red bull leaks on it and we saw a few blokes doing wheelies down the straight outside the diner. All in all well worth the trip, however if I had been more than 65 miles away I night have not gone the way the weather looked. I took these inauspicious pictures.

Glad to see at least one of you had a properly colored TRX!

Oh, and I see more candidates (actually, shoe ins...) for the OOOSDC! :wink:

Time for new glasses old timer. The black engine is so damned obvious, as well as its accompanying white frame and red highlights... :wink:

And... Notice it's the only one people are standing around...

Case closed...

I win! :hahaha:

Quite right, it's mine and if I wasn't taking the picture I too would have been gazing adoringly at it. Oh and as for the OOOSDC I am also that old.

Hello everyone. Finally found my way to this forum (I guess I will ned a new tee shirt now?) A pity the weather did it's best to deter folks from turning out for the meet at Fox's but fully understand why some didn't want to risk it. It was windy enough on the way home tomake me shelter in a field gateway to avoid being blown off the road. Oh well, here's to another try in the Spring?
Rubber side down, Red side up is my preferred riding style.

I've got a barrel load of excuses but the short answer is 'YES'. (If I'd wanted to get wet and muddy I'd have bought a TeDiuM) But if you ever fancy a run up to Fox's give us a call and I'm sure I could be tempted out.
