They'll be riders fighting for the front and the back. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

I like to sit at the back and watch everyone up front myself.
Sorry - reverse pole position is naturally mine as I'll most likely be on a TDM carefully disguised as Burgman 400.... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

No it's not. Last big CMC trip we had 2 Mk1 TDMs, 2 Mk2's, a 900, an XTZ with a TDM engine, a TDM owner on a BMW, and a Tiger. This TDM meet sounds like it'll have far more non-TDMs than a CMC meet :-D
1992 Mk1, 76k miles, Hagon springs, MTC exhaust, 4½ gears Gone now Sad

2009 900 abs, 42k miles, Yamaha heated grips, double bubble screen, R&G crash bungs, scottoiler, Autocom, 1500 lumen LED spotlights.
