Yep, you missed a great day. Of course, many thanks to Nelly for hosting us all. great location for bike and 8xx bollox. As much tea and coffee as you could drink, and just around the corner for the maga breakfasts....

Considering the clash with the DD at Oulton I think we managed a great turn out, so many thanks to all the guys, great to meet you all.

Best regards,

Rob

Just got back now. Only got lost twice..... Chatsworth Park is gorgeous.....I'll have to go back on a planned visit some time .... Speaking of gorgeous, thanks to kwikbitch for hunting the grub for us and thanks to nelly for the coffee and the venue , and thanks to rob for the original idea.

It was nice to put faces to names and have a natter and drool over the mods to other peoples bikes. Thanks also to everyone else for taking the time to turn up and making it an enjoyable day out.

I'm off for a hot bath now to ease the aches and pains and then maybe a glass of Baileys ( or two )

Have to agree, it was nice to put faces to names and it must have been a long time since there where that many 888,s all in the same place
,Jeeeez we even managed to get two 851,s and thats a first for me

[Jools]

Just wrote a nice reply, then clicked the mouse, and it was on the little red cross that closes the browser...DOH...told you I was knackered.
More thoughts tomorrow when I've had a long hot soak and a long hot whisky (or three)

Good to meet you all.

see the surfboard thread for breaking news

[gregmh900e]

so how many 8788s were there then

[Screwy]

At a rough guess (I didnt count them unfortunately) there was at least ten 888,s and two 851,s . There were a fair few pics taken with the bikes lined up outside Cornerspeed,s doors which will probably be posted up later . For lovers of the 8 series bikes it was a sight worth seeing tbh .
