Good pictures and video - shame you northern people can't ride properly as you never hear about crashes on a southern rideout. Razz

Can't really add much to what has already been said. As last year, it was a cracking day out. Ian James organises an excellent rideout with a good mix of roads, enough stops and at a sensible pace. It was just a shame that there had to be a spill somwhere along the way, but all credit to Burger Boy for getting straight back on again.

I got home about 8:15 last night after a good long thrash across country through Oxford. I was having such a great time that I actually felt sad when I got onto the last stretch of dual carriageway before getting home.

There was a good spread of machinery, including Monty's Carver which turned heads wherever we went.






Here are a selection of the pics I took during the day.










Thankfully for Craig, the damage to his Nexus was mostly cosmetic.

Great photo's looks like you had a great day.

Not seen a Carver before that must have nearly caused some accidents with car drivers staring at it for too long!!

How do you get out of it then? through the top? It has a steering wheel so does it just lean itself when you steer or do you have to lean it?? Weird... but I'd love a go!!
