Just got back from another great ride around the Wye Valley.. The weather was kind to us this year with no rain and bone dry tintern steps which made them really easy for a change! Devils stair case gets harder every year but what a great challenge! This has to be the hardest challenge for man and machine the MT riders ever have to face!

Big thanks to franc for leading us around the trails on his C90 and showing us some more new trails! Awesome.

Saturday night was full of the usual entertainment and banter soured only by England getting thrashed by the Aussies!

Big welcome to the ride out scene for Laurence and Jooles who rode all the way up from Kent..

See you all at the next one which all being well will be Mr Shineys Northampton extravaganza unless you brave the Dragon!

Got home safely around 5. What a brilliant weekend. A big thank you all who made us feel welcome, especially Rick, spelt with a silent "p"!!! Really good to put faces to names-and many thanks to Franc for making it all possible - and a new carb!

A big thankyou to all who came this year, what a scream! :lol:
Memorable moments include flying past Gronk on a particularly tricky track and doing the devils staircase on the C90, the exhaust took a massive hit and sheared the end can clean off, and destroying the brakes.
My neighbour Adam came out for his first trail riding experience, and did amazingly well on my MT604.
I feel sorry for Micks missus, as she won't stop hearing about Minter and his carb, Jeff and his antitheft system for his trailer, Bulldogs Honda MT500, and Lardmarc had me in stitches all night.
Finally, welcome to to the new guys that bit the bullet and survived the ribbing piss taking, and banter.
An amazing weekend full of giggles gaffs and games, only made better by an brilliant result in the rugby.......well done England. :D
