Probably be at Scotch Corner services at the end of the ride trapping passing motorists about that time.....with a heavy blue bucket and my van!
Over 5000 signed up so far I believe                                                                                                                                                                               

See everyone there!!   (or not,,,)                                                                                                                                                                             

ln9, are you on the run and if so what time.                                                                                                                                                                             

As I didn't get a pilly (and I'm trying to raise money for charidee) I won't be in leathers   So look out for the bird in the outrageously short skirt, thigh boots and a big blue bucket.......and throw money at me!                                                                                                                                                                              

I'll keep a GOOD look out for you   Shouldn't be hard to miss                                                                                                                                                                              

There's about 10 of us booked in for the 12.30 slot 

Weather looks horrendous so just as well it's only an hour run!                                                                                                                                                                             

Weather doesn't look to bad (XC weather) - still hoping to make it but at a rally near Retford this weekend so might not be in a fit state Sunday morning... 

If we don't make it hope everyone has a fab day and raises loadsa dosh                                                                                                                                                                              

Met office shows black clouds here, lashing down and 16mph winds to get the rain nice and horizontal. Waterproofs in top box just in case me thinks 

With 5000 bikes riding out it's sure to make a lot of dosh and my son was lucky enough to return unscathed but not so with some of his mates. If anyone's thinking of ordering  a T-shirt bythe way they're good quality (Fruit of the loom) and really smart. Never had mine off my back since I got it, might be worn out by Sunday lol                                                                                                                                                                             

Fantastic weather today.....hope it holds for tomorrow!   The merchandise is indeed top quality Rusty   And just before 10am, and the departure of the first ridegroup of the day there is a low flypast over the runway at Marne Barracks by one of the Spitfires from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight - this will be a sight not to be missed!!!!
