Always a pleasure doing good things for the club events to remember the moments and share to those who did, those who can't and those who might be too timid to come along. We are not cliché we are motorcycle friends.
Hope the calendar will portray all this about the club as it has done always.

Glad it wasn't just me who had a slippy moment on the leaves... hope nothing's too badly bent!

Today was my first UKMOC event since actually (finally!) getting a Monster, I'd been really looking forward to it and I'm pleased to say I wasn't disappointed. Great weather for the most part, great company, and I enjoyed feeling a part of the event and not having to sit in the naughty corner for once!

thanks all, really enjoyed the day and almost made it home dry. got just past newbury junction on m4 and it chucked it down for 20 miles got off at royal wootton bassett and the roads were dry! nice to meet a few of you and hope to make a few functions if things allow

Thank you Slob for today's rumble and for paying the rain gods *just* enough to keep it sporting.

Three weeks after adding an S2R to my life, my first ride out in polite company. A blast.

Great to see everyone & so many Minnie's out in iffy conditions. Nice one :-)

Thanks for a good day out.
It was nice to put more faces to names.
Sorry to hear you had a rough ride back Grumpy.

The little one ran like a gud un today .
Except it needs a new clutch !!( bangs head on wall).
And seriously can't wait to get suspension sorted and lowered .
I was slipping on the wet leaves as I'm on tiptoes on the bike.
Once I have it set up itl be a hoot.

Some lovely bikes there today .
Who's is the yellow one with the little peashooter exhausts ?
They look fab .. Shame I didn't hear them.

Great to meet old friends, and meet new people,at Box Hill, putting faces to names was great. Lovely to meet you all.

The ride home was frustrating, apart from the 3rd lane hoggers on the M25, my bike throw its chain on the M11, just south of Harlow whilst overtaking in the 3rd lane, in the parlance, I was making rapid progress!
The van I was overtaking at the time was arsey, as I dived for the hard shoulder!
Then a 1 hour wait for the AA, in the rain of course!!

Picking up on an earlier comment, why don't we make this a semi regular event, perhaps going for a ride out to local events/ attractions as part of the day.

Lovely to meet you too... thank heavens you made it over to the hard shoulder safely .... better a wait alive than squished by the arsey van.
