    Yeah 10am sounds good to me, so we looking at a good 3-4hrs of you've been framed footage then? Lol I too will be on the train coming in from Wakefield way.
    I'm gonna be running an old school GT (temp til new ride arrives) so I expect I'll spend more time out the saddle either doing bodge job repairs or falling off!!

    Hi Guys,
    might have to make the Sunday meet at 11. Just had a quick look at the trains and the first connection for Lee coming from Wakefield gets into Bingley at 11am, is everyone else ok for 11?

    Hey all, I maybe be a little later out tomorrow than originally planned, rode home tonight and crank is wrecked????? Not happy!! Gonna head to my LBS first thing and see about replacement. So it probably won't be til afternoon when I get out there, but it will be/should be sorted for Sunday so Sunday is a definate 11am.

    Also thinking further ahead, how's everyone fixed for evening/night rides during the week?

  • Bad luck Lee, that's a real blow! So Saturday looks like it's going to be cancelled as Mark's Mrs has the car! Are we better leaving Saturday and all getting together Sunday at 11 in Bingley for all 4 of us. Eddy your call mate for tomorrow!

    Night rides are ok for me, but all depends where n when as i do work some late shifts, but deffo up for that! Ste

    Tell me about it not sure whether I should go for repair or replacement to be honest, what's ya thoughts? I'm thinking of upgrading a few parts anyways til my new machine is acquired!
    " I know the voices aren't real.....but they have some really GOOD ideas! "
  • Hey fellas, not heard anything so assume today's cancelled, real shame! Can we confirm tomorrow guys? 11:00 am at Bingley train station? Who's gonna be there, and how long we planning to be out for? We really gotta do this! Eddy you happy to lead??

    Lee get the bike fixed pal!

    Well I'm defo on fro tomorrow at 11 :-)
    Night ride sound good to me but timings could be difficult for me. I commute over to accrington still at the moment so don't get back to Guiseley until just after 7.

    Lee, depends if you are going to keep the bike after the new one arrives. But i'd generally go for replacement most of the time as once something goes it tends to be on it's way out for good :-(

    Well I hope you guys had a better ride than me yesterday, I got 100 meters before crashing over the bars, dislocated finger, bent rotor, walk home :(

    Maybe this weekend?
  • Oh sh*t Eddy, bad luck pal! Always up for a jaunt, and can assure you that the guys are serious too! I'm working Saturday but happy to meet Sunday assuming that we can all agree? If Lee's got his new steed then I'm sure he would to to give her/him an outing? Mark, I know you had plans for Ilkley but what about all 4 of us hitting the trail with Eddy leading?

    Yeah I'll play out even if the new toy hasn't arrived I'll bring out the GT which I can safely say has now been repaired! *LOUD CHEERING* so just let me know times and places so I can look up train times if needed, I'm on nights too on Saturday so forgive me if I'm lagging at the back!

    Steve you have my number so drop me a text with details otherwise I'll get em on here.

    Eddy will ya beast be fixed and ready for the weekend? Hope so!
