Me and cheekyads will just plod along behind you all coz we'll be in the van with the bike in back.
Might even just make our own way over to port rush from the port if that's a better option, coz there's no way I'll be able to keep up with you lads in the van.

I'll ride with you, Kev, as I'll have fresh rubber on and won't be able to lean it over very far.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I'm sure it won't be fresh by the end of the weekend. If you're lucky it might even be in need of a change again :Eyebrows:

are you still thinking of heading off for a ride out across wales on Friday Morning?
Me and Pete Major are stopping here https://www.dolgam-snowdonia.co.uk/camping on Thursday night.
It about 40 miles from the ferry just off the main A470 if you want to stop by for a coffee on the way.
If not, no worries, we'll see you at the port :thumbup:

Are we really going to keep 20 plus bikes together in one group?
