I'm completely agree with you. We can retire the troops, but if we don't do it, we have to support our troops.:thumbsup[1]::thumbsup[1]::thumbsup[1]::thumbsup[1]:

New member of the forum, coming in on the 11 til 12 slot. Last ride on my trusty Kawasaki Versys, before i pick up the new Tenere on Monday. Looking forward to joining what looks like a good forum. Enjoy the ride guys.

uncle ricky 14-03-10 19:06

Even the people from the old peoples home were sat outside with a blanket over them to keep them warm waving, BRILLIANT DAY, very well organized and the police kept a very low profile, I must say it brought a lump to my throat, with loads of banners thanking bikers.

And a BIG thank you to all the people that donated there free time to make this event happen, that today took a lot of behind the scenes organizing well done to one and all

I was just thinking when I got home after stopping in a pub have an orange juice then riding home 100 miles getting home about 16.30 and thinking that they would still be leaving the airfield to ride thru, those people lining the roads are certainly going to have sore arms with all that waving.

Nice riding up with you Stridey and nice talking to you Banksy, even through we didn't see each other

DITTO all of the above to!

Thanks for letting me ride with you-really enjoyed it and that "Supped" up Ten you have is truly amazing- something I would like to do to mine when funds are better.

Dont forget to put some video up on the forum?

see you soon.
