@ Juz.  The soul is stronger than ever thanks to individuals such as you, Terry, Richard and Gary Mills.  Thanks everyone...

Can't wait to take on Gomersal Road on Saturday morning on the new steed.  Its super comfortable and really stable and I went with compacts this time. 

See you all Saturday.  Can you tell I am excited!?! lol

Hi Guys,

Its nice to finally be able to check "will attend."  The insurance company finally paid and Gary Mills ordered me in a new bike without me having the money yet.  My cheque hasn't cleared yet, but he still let me take the bike. 

I had my first ride last night (with Terry) and copped my first flat... 

Thanks for your support everyone, and special thanks to Gary from Star Cycles for sorting out a new bike for me and letting me take it before I have paid for it.

See you all Saturday.  I can't wait.

Looks like a huge turnout for this one, seeing it's supposed to be a holiday weekend. Great to see!

See how Lee copes with compacts lol..damn him

Fantastic!!! I'm stoked Lee will be out on his new steed.  Too much time off a bike isn't good for a man's soul.

@Chewie - Saturday's weather is looking very Sophia-friendly. :-)
