BigJ ride - 27th March
« on: March 27, 2011, 03:56:39 PM »
the big man would have been proud with the turnout.
Pretty much every WB'er there today from what I could see apart from 2 that I knew of.

Terry's was packed  :tup2
REALLY heavy fog approaching Terry's, in fact the heaviest I've seen up there ever :eek

I only managed to get a couple of rubbish phone pics but PhilEvans took a group shot at Builth which I'm sure he'll post up later, and Chamz took a couple.

Followed Fuzz for a while and we stopped at the entrance to Beulah for the others, at which point another group of bikes turned to go up over Beulah.

I gave Fuzz a quick nod as we were both thinking the same thing  :devil
We picked 'em all off with ease apart from the front guy which took a bit longer
RDStars was with us too, went well on that ThunderAce  :cheers


If J were there he'd have mullered them too  :rofl :thumbsup
Fantastic day, good to see such a big turnout
Couple of (crap) pics.  Sure others will add theirs too


A photo of PhilEvans taking a photo


Wedge giving directions  :leaving







told you the pics were shit  :rofl

Nice one Pope and a gorgeous picture of me and higgy thrown in too. Cold though - colder than I planned. Warming under a duvet at the moment. Nice to see everyone today - cheers.

Big  :tup2 to all that made the ride out and braved the freezing fog at Terrys.

A few peeps got lost en route, and I hope they all got back ok, but overall a successful ride.

Far too many plod at Llandovery for my likeing - not over overdoing it at all - honest  :handjob

I had a superb first ride on the Tiger and think it's going to be a long and happy relationship...it just LOVES twisties  :devil

And must not forget Jo, belss her  :nails first day out on a 'big' bike and on a group ride to boot, she done really well, mind she did have the mighty Throbber watching her arse most of the day  :rofl

Thanks again all for a great day

RIP Big J  :group_hug

Bikes don't leak oil',.... they mark their territory :o)           Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight. Growing old is manditory... but growing up...well that my friends...is OPTIONAL!

Was an amassing day (if not a little cold & slippery)

Almost hung up my leathers last year as I just never went out, still meeting like minded riders have given me that spark back.

Some real great roads heading back to Brecon, my Thunder'fat'slow was skipping and sliding every where, got to learn those roads.

Cheers all  :tup2

Oh and wasn't foccering very well as I was wearing the wrong trousers ( I picked up my summer ones by accident and didn't have time to swap) mild hypothermia is bad for foccering
