Well what can I say?
Fantastic day all round, I cant apologise enough for not hanging around for long at the pub as time was tight and we had to get to the B&B then the pub
Our group had a little extra lane added to make the gap bigger between the us and the group in front
Anyway, thank you to everyone on this trip without you we wouldnt have such a great friendly group and stories to tell and laugh at.
They are not great quality but if any one wants the hi res pics pop me a pm

An excellent day out - Many thanks to Lawrence for his excellent planning which allowed me to slot in to lead a group at the last minute!
So piccies courtesy of Jo:
Mark and I checking out the carwash, Jase checking out a butty ...
Sending Mark across first as he was just itching to go
The crossing
Out safely the other side
Heading up the lanes
And meeting at the pub at the end

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...'Wow! What a ride!

Well that looked like a great day out. Wud love to be on the next one ,( work permitting ) Me and my mate were up that way the week before , we had to stop to help some enduro riders fix a puncture. 
A lot easier when youve got a trolley jack and proper tools.

Certainly was a great day out, many thanks to Trugga for the welcome packs. they added a lot to what was a great day anyway. Went on a few lanes that I had never done before which was nice.
I would have uploaded pictures but 2 things have gone wrong so far
1: the batteries in the camera went flat early on in the day and I discovered I had only brought 1 of the spares leaving the other one on the kitchen table.
2: I loaned out my SD card reader and havent gotten round to getting it back yet.
3: I cant find the flinking cable for my phone to get the pics off that.
Ok, so thats 3 things but who cares, I had a great day and it was good to meet everyone and see some new faces as well.
Will post pics as soon as problems 2 and 3 are sorted out.
