Super sunny Monday, no traffic, couldn’t resist! Spotted a short stress crack forming in the rear brake resevoir hanger, as I was prepping the bike. ‘She’ll be right mate’, as the Aussies say with blind optimism, for one more short ride before I fix that. Nah,…..she’s not always right!
Shake, rattle and roll!

DGR Gold coast, nice run, lots of stop start with all the raod works on the old Gold Coast highway at Miami but well worth the effort.

A few pictures from the 100th celebrations at the Wharf inn. the nigt before. Even Cliffa turned up from Switzerland on his UK bike, hoping to pay for his trip selling his throttle body covers!
The morning after the night before where a few beers were were consumed..
Not a great start to the day where a an ill considered left turn had me meeting the steering lock and dropping my bike! Only damage, a loosened mirror, bent side stand tang thingy and a broken leaver. Very relieved nothing else damaged!
The Wharf inn. An idyllic location and great weather!
Two traditional narrow boats. These were used in the late 1800's to the 1900's for transportation of commercial goods throughout the canal system.
I'm not sure what the final count was. I heard that 27 961's turned up...but I counted 23 at one point
We even had one from a rogue manufacturer!
Bike were everywhere
So all in all, a great day was had, just a tiring ride home through a few miles of stationary/slow moving traffic due to a rather nasty accident on one of the main motorways heading to London.
Great organsiation and I'm sure Jonathan will be doing a you tube video covering some of this!

It was a terrific weekend for me. First the Andover Norton open day on Saturday, then meeting the gang at the hotel later, followed by yesterdays superb meet. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and sold all the covers I’d brought with me
.
By the time I got to the M11 the warning was saying 1.5 hour delay due to the accident. I managed to thread my way through it, as most car and truck drivers moved over for me.

The same for me, except when one rider ahead decided he would no longer filter and stopped, blocking everyone else! Tempers were not too frayed and he started moving again after a few minutes. It looked like a nasty crash though, so my view, someone else was having a worse day! Hope you got home safely and great to meet! Your cover stayed on despite some very rough surfaces on the A14...unlike my mirror which went awol!It was a terrific weekend for me.

Cool picture. Waiting to see if he snapped me going the opposite direction too, before I pay to lose the watermark.
