I think I sat on the wrong table, must learn for next year!

So far a very enjoyable weekend, good ride yesterday in the Brecons, and looking forward to the ride out today

Yes thanks to Eleanor and Andy for a great weekend so far,the great north run was stunning and very well organised Andy did a fantastic job of leading us around some awesome roads.
I enjoyed the quiz and the answer's from a certain table who thought it was a kebab based quiz ?

Just arrived home after a great couple of days,

Thanks must go to Eleanor and Andy for organising the whole show and choosing a wonderful location, also it was great to meet again with our friends.

The rain doesn't seem to matter when the roads are this good, a very wet rideout this morning was still excellent :-D

Well done mate.
Thanks for a great weekend and for a fun filled Saturday. Eleanor and Andy did a great job organising it but without the attendees it is nothing. I sadly only managed to attend in a car but still went out with the ride for backup and for a cuppa. Really enjoyed the venue even if it was a journey.
Thanks all .

And we're back all in the dry to

Fab weekend thanks to mr & Mrs C

Made it home in the dry

Found a Black EVO under all that dirt

Many Thanks to Elanor and Andy for doing a sterling job getting it all together

Many apologies for not turning up.
It wasn't because of the rain, honest.
I would've made it by sunday but the post-rebuild, shakedown run revealed a rattle that I daren't ride with.
Its not engine and probably nothing much, but by then the rain had arrived and fault finding in the dark and wet wasn't really on.
Somewhat gutted ... I was particularly looking forward to this year's weekender.
Thanks anyway to Eleanor and Andy for their much appreciated work in organising.

HUUUGE thanks to Mr&Mrs_C for organising! plus J.P for leading Sunday's rideout, Oz for trophy making ...and everyone else for showing up.
Nice ride home, not the soaking we were expecting, just the usual bank holiday drivers chicken****tery on the roads. Must've been making decent progress out of Waless, since we met J.P and bex leaving a petrol station in Bromyard just as we were arriving.

Great weekender
Thanks to Eleanor and Andy for all there hard work organising a great weekender.
Andy for leading Saturdays rideout, Jp for leading Sundays rideout, Oz for making brilliant trophies.
Brilliant company as usual.

Nice food, curry and kebabs !
Great real ale bar across the road.

It really was a great weekender. Thank you Andy and Eleanor for organising the weekend so well. The hotel was great and the ride out on Saturday with Andy leading was brilliant. Thank you also to JP for leading a great ride out on Sunday. The weather was not great but it was all superb. Thank you.

Thanks Andy and Eleanor and all those mentioned above who helped make a great weekend.

Similarly a mostly dry ride home, albeit a bit dull after being spoiled by the Welsh roads.

Bradders · 02-05-2016, 08:12 PM

Yeah, enjoyed it, worth saying thanks a second time

And no idea what you are all talking about, never got wet once

Many thanks to Andy & Eleanor for organising a great weekender. The hotel and town was a terrific venue, I think Mrs BRD & I may well take the MX5 down for a break in the future.

Although I am a big poof & didn't take the bike I had a very relaxing & enjoyable weekend. The alehouse was a real bonus.

Good to see some old friends & meet some new peeps as well. I may bimble over to Cadwell next Saturday to see some of you.
