The plan was the 748 but it looks like its going to be a bit nippy tomorrow so pondering on the Multi instead.

We can all be cold together on sportsbike Duke, haha. Would be good to see the 748 in the flesh I haven't seen post all your latest mods.

Tbh Duke it wasn't that cold yesterday especially when your on the move and generating heat.

It's already Sunday here, so thought I'd say have a good ride tomorrow you lot, have fun and be safe. And as is mantatory I expect to see proof of cake!

Other bike related pics will be appreciated too

Cheers Kiwi, just finished cleaning checking etc, she looks gorgeous , ready to roll for the big TS ride through Wales. Have a good day yourself, will get some piccies

Cheers kiwi, you will have to come to the next one

I need to wash my bike for tomorrow? No one told me this.

I'm out.

How dirty can it be, its virtually brand new

I can't see through the screen sort of dirty.

Can you confirm times at the meeting point at the station cafe please.

leaving the Craven Arms Station Cafe at 10.30

I have sent out text and PM's for the southern group... IF we want to make Brekkie, I would want to leave the Reading meeting point by 7 - 7.15 latest with a pretty full tank. Head up the M4 and A417 at Swindon to Cirencester, Glos, Leominster, and then onto the Craven, hopefully for a rest before going off. That way we get some miles done to get there, B roads would be fun, but would take to long. Estimated time = 2 hr 15min

If your on for that please confirm asap, text would be best as I doubt I will see this in time.

I'm confused.

I'll pick Perkles up at the M42 Junc 2 services as agreed and take it from there. If there are others I'll collect them.

See some of you at the Craven Arms and others at Newtown McDonalds.

As you know it's my plan to make it one day, however the next one might be a bit of an ask

You could always join me for a trackday at Eastern Creek, it's not all one sided you know

Re my post 3 up from this > sorry to confuse, I was not aware of the meet up previously arranged (did not re-read the whole thread) that way up on the M42, In my head I was planning a direct route up. If you are going that way cool, I will be heading my route.
See you are soon.

I didn't realise i needed to wash it first.

It used to be just check the oil, lube the chain and fuel up.

If I am not at Cravens Arms by 10.30 don't wait around for me (though that is my plan), I will head straight to Newtown McDonalds.

That basically describes my prep for tomorrow, I did also put some air in the tyres.. No idea what the pressures are though as my pressure gauge has packed up, they just felt a little low last time I rode it. Also spotted that my rear tyre is about to hit the wear indicators so I think this may be it's last ride.

Really looking forward to tomorrow..

Ride safely and see you all tomorrow morning.
