Very enjoyable couple of days with a good bunch of guys, and Gal.
Run up with Tony, Brian & Paul was great and bar a short, sharp shower in Newick (about three miles after setting off from home) the run up was dry. We stopped at The Trout Inn on the way up, at Mark's recommendation, lovely place and VERY popular.
Weather made up for allowing us a dry run up - it pi$$ed down all night! At least it dried up from early morning today and I didn't catch any rain until 2 miles from home.
Thanks to Mark, Neil (& Ben), Matt & Liz for getting all setup prior to us arriving yesterday.
Tony, think Mark was right with 'googles'!

I had an uneventful but fun ride home, though by the time i got there my legs were so stiff I could barely get out of the car.

Hi Tony, glad you had a good time, yeah i watched the vids - good stuff! hope you had enough to eat - there's was loads more, but when i turned around you'd wandered off....infact a woman was wanting to talk to 'the fury owner'.....

Got back about an hour ago, last night was not so bad, cold but dry. That I had managed to find a hotel room just down the road helped
Call me a wimp, but it just wasn't going to be the same without the rest of you and besides I needed a shower - badly.
A big thanks to Mark for organising the BBQ and club area etc. I especially enjoyed the doughnuts...

Well lads what can i say, was it something i said or what.
No seriously i was my fault for missing the BBQ, got carried away and grabbed some lunch whilst walking round.
Had my own grub and stove just in case it was needed anyways.
Not a bad nights sleep (helped by a few fosters ), bit windy but no rain and better than what you guys had the night before.
See a few more cars today and made a move about 13.30, not a bad run home on and off light rain and that freezing hail in your face.
But car run like a dream so hopefully my recent troubles are behind me.
Hope to see you all soon on a run somewhere.

Felt a bit guilty Rich cutting and running without seeing you - but guessed you'd got wrapped up in the Show.....maybe you can make the Chip Run on Friday?
