Thanks for the toughts,
the whole family is here, talking things over. Its a bit of a relief really as he was not the person we knew and loved any more at the end.
I'm more worried about Dave sat in a wet tent on his own for the week end !

Very sorry to hear your sad news both Jim & Ivan, best wishes to you and your families.
Presuming my post-birthday hangover isn't too debilitating we'll be landing in Llangollen some time tomorrow afternoon to enjoy a few bevvies.

Well, it's persisting down here, & Boy Wonder won't get out of bed to come camping, I can't go on my own, as Mrs S has gone on a cultural trip visiting art galleries in London [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
So I'm afraid that's me out [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif[/img]
Looks like my order of the day is order new tyres for the Fazer & paint the consrvatory walls [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/img]
Rtt11 - North Wales - Studley Ramrod - 16-07-2011
How's the Faz runnin' Mick ? I assume it's ok as yer needing new boots ferrit [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]
Shame about the paintin [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/img]

Engine is fine mate - running like a turbine [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/good.gif[/img]
Not sure about the radiator fan working though - it should cut in when you start the bike, then cut out when you engage gear, but it doesn't
I need to check it on idle when it's hot to make sure.
The BT 020 on the front is about shagged & affecting cornering - back is OK but squaring off, so I thought I'd try me a pair of those PR3's
Then I need some Givi pannier frames, so I can do some touring on it, so I'm keeping me eye on Evilbay fer some.

Looks a bit wet up there

After studying the weather we decided we really couldn't be arsed to fight with the tent, just called the farm in the last hope there may have been some bunk house spaces but sadly not. So apologies we're crying off too......
Let us know where to send paypal too for T-shirts + PnP please!

Jim dont feel bad about missing the trip,,, family always first m8,,,, also i think it's worked out better for you to come another time as today was blinkin torrential rain,, and many of the roads get far to greasy to ride in safety,,,, on the plus side we found a better pub 10 mins the otherway,,,had a live band on,, but a much better atmosphere,,,, we did'nt know they had bands on until 4 in the morning on the friday night,,,,,bugger.
Can try and get to another weekend if your comin over, just dont let Dave pick the bloody weekend cos it WILL piss down [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
Saturday rideout was fantastic,,,

Certainly wasn't your fault Dave, you did a sterling job organising the RTT and I for one feel bad about not attending cos o the weather.
I shudda picked fri/sat not sat/sun but the forecast on thurs had me believe the weather would be drier on sat/sun/mon but they got it wrong.
