Friday evening rendezvous,

Postby boxerscott » Tue May 19, 2015 9:17 pm

May I suggest we all try to congregate at the Carters Rest bar opposite our Abbey on Friday evening from 9pm for a meet and greet?

There is one minor alteration to the route, our late morning refreshment stop will now be Coldingham Bay (St Vedas Hotel and Beach café TD14 5PA) and not Eyemouth Golf Club as identified on the route map posted.

The thermometer started to rise this afternoon... after I got caught in a hail storm :evil: Taking my bike for its mot.

Forecast is looking good.

Really looking forward to this with great anticipation.

The Plan is to muster at the Glebe car park (one adjacent river behind our Abbey) 9.45am for a 10am off Saturday.

Chris

We had a fantastic weekend (bar the puncture) great ride out super dinner and excellent company, well worth the effort to get to the borders 😃
We're now in Pitlochry, Applecross tomorrow, so if Chris (Boxerscott) could do a little more praying to the weather god that would be great.

This guy might look like a little back street garage but he knew his onions, Tosh at T&M motorcycles, Newtown St Boswells.

Top weekend, great riding, good company and too much booze. Many thanks to Chris for organising the weather and the route.

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

:) Aye but none the less, the sun shone, the roads were dry (and empty) and nobody else cared about the 1100s :wink:
