Hi, I'm kicking around south end, Hykeham. Yourself? i've never seen another Monster around Lincoln apart from when I'm in the dealer getting some parts...then they all ride past and disappear.

Nice looking bike M1100_Red - you could eat your dinner off those exhausts!

@Grumpy - I'd be very tempted to join you on a trip to see the 'Lanc' on the bike evening event

@ronnocoekim, Thanks bud. The exhaust was my project for over winter. Not something i recommend doing unless you fancy renewing the skin on your hands

@smiffyraf1, yeah i think a compulsory cuppa at the woods would be in order sometime.

@Grumpy, An evening at Kirkby sounds good. Ill have to check calender to see if im off

So why are you trying to not touch it with your tyres?

I dropped Chris Jessop a PM about East Kirkby and he has kindly posted details.

It's on the 1st of October...Used to be on the May Bank Holiday.

Thanks for the prompt posting Chris...

Hello and welcome. Lincolnshire is my riding area of choice, Usually around the Wolds and seeing family in Louth area. I would say that what Slob is riding over is probably the highest point in the county!
Sounds like there are a few locally to meet up, DOC also have thier monthly meet in a pub at Nettleham.

Nor can anybody else to be fair!

The Anniversary model also had the 'Cagiva' font- I wonder how much Ducati had to pay to use it?
They lost the ownership of it when Cagiva sold Ducati and TPG took over.

Bike looks sweet by the way!!

@Slob nice pic! Looks like you had a good time and good weather. I intend to parade mine around at some point this year. Already bought my onesie

@MrGazza, cheers for the update, I'll pencil that date in the diary...weather permitting of course

@Jonno, I think you're right, I regularly get nose bleeds when I stray outside the county, something to do with elevation changes . The Wolds is a nice place to ride, I've caught many of fly brains out that way

@Flip, I always wondered what that font was called and where it came from. Cheers for the like by the way

Oh it's probably got a proper name (Albie will know I'm sure) but it was from when Cagiva were the parent company.
