If you look on here for my profile you will be able to see what the bike looks like and so hopefully stop me and say hi. Hope to see you there...

what an emotional experience.....nuf said                                                                                                                                                                               

VFR... I can imagine..

I've been watching some footage from todays ride and I  was filling up..  
It makes you so incredibly proud to be British and proud of our forces.

Well Done to all those that took part today.

R.I.P. to all the fallen.. Lest We Forget.                                                                                                                                                                             

I was in tears inside me helmet going through Tamworth, all people lining the road and waving, lost count of how many kids I gave 'low five' to.  Brilliant, then the service at the Arboretum got me again. 

 
Book yerself a day off for next years,  I booked off my nights to do this, glad I did.
 
Bumped into a few BM's , no doubt more there than I saw though.
 
                                                                                                                                                                              

I can imagine the atmosphere.. I'm so gutted I missed it, but I was there in spirit.

I will definitely be booking this weekend off next year, it just wasn't possible this year.. not through want of trying...believe me.

I was married to a soldier and we lost our best man in Northern Ireland..  so any of these occasions mean a lot to me.

Just seeing the support along the route is enough to make your eyes leak.. WELL DONE to all those involved........ I salute you.

Great day. good to see bmers at Woodhall, Drayton Manor and the arboretum. A few photos on events page                                                                                                                                                                              

  Thanks for the wonderful pics Vlad   http://www.bikermatch.co.uk/sites/bm/events/gallery/gallery.asp?event_id=4145                                                                                                                                                                             

Very poinant day at the Arboritum, and  what a wonderful turn out . All along the way folks gathered on the bridges with Union Jacks and waving at all of us. The caring ceremonies brought some tears for sure....   Huge thanks to Ray for taking me....(pics to follow later ) x                                                                                                                                                                             

What a day, that was incredidle. I was almost in tears when I saw people on bridges welcoming us in, I could believe the response we got. then the place its self is beautiful and atmospheric. the whole day, was an experience, and one hell of a trubute to the men and women that the arboretom was built to to remember.    

Well almost made it to RTTW, would of got there if my brakes hadn't decided lock up completely 6 miles past Corley services, causing me to involuntarily slow rather rapidly and having to pull out of the ride. Shame also for my pillion and Brownhole who was following me.
Trike had to make the sad journey home on the back of an AA truck...............how undignified!!!!
