Before it goes in the event calendar…

You don’t remember it that well as it was me that was with you and Andy. We missed a right turn thanks to youknowwho and carried straight on. By the time we realised what had gone wrong the others were long gone so we ended up in Bakewell where you bought the icecreams.

I think we sat on this bench?

The car park was on a downhill slope :rofl:

Left to right…

Me, Eric, one of the speed triple nutters, Wayne, Dougie, ?, ykw, Dave (La Roca?) Steve (Crispey),
? , Dave (Tiglet) , 2 interlopers from Cornwall, Tim (Roadrider) hiding at the back, Adrian (Andy Pandy RIP) Steve Lovatt, The biglad and finally? Was it Steve (Wessa) that took the photo?

Yes, that’s Dave on the far right next to me (blue Tiger 800).

Yes I did manage to scew up the drop off as Andypandy was the last man on his Bonneville America in a hi-viz, but there was another bloke on an identical bike in hi-viz who bloody waved at me!.

Glad I helped you boys to an ice cream !

Tiglet is in the yellow jacket - not sure on a couple - I know “half-ton” was there so possibly he’s one.

Found a few old pictures from the Peak District GMU in 2016.

The Biglad lurking in a cafe in Bakewell!

If you want help setting up something new @Tigcraft I’m happy to help but I’ve already got quite a lot on my to-do list so don’t want lead the charge and do a poor job of it.

I met Dave in 2015 at The Bishops Waltham bike show in Hampshire, he knew I lived near and asked me if I wanted to meet him at Loomies first. He came over to visit a group of friends and then visit family in Devon.

Turns out his mate was Delboy from “Delboys Garage”

The Biglad about to depart for Devon in his custom bike gear!

The start of something….

The second GMU in 2017 at Bellingham. I remember riding up from Winchester to Sheffield for my stepdaughter’s graduation and then over to my mum’s in Bradford, in the rain. Rode over to meet Nikki in Kirkby Lonsdale, in the rain. Both rode up to Dumfries to meet Big Ron and the others, in the rain.

Crispey and Dougie trying to set a self timer

Guess what? Still raining!
