  1. Thats the spirit! Mrs M will hopefully have been fully licensed up for a while by then so looks like that could be 4 Duc's in attendance for a start :)

    Would love to do the Scotland Weekender too but that will be a non-starter for me I'm afraid as it will be mine and the eldest daughters birthday weekend...

    Look on the bright side too mate, least the majority of the fine weather will be behind us by the time you've hit the period of no weekends off. There will be chance to get mid week runs in too if the weather remains kind to us :)
     
  2. Made it home ok with a new MOT! cheers chaps, thanks for a brilliant afternoon - great to meet you. hope the pace wasn't too slow up to the woods.
    my wrists and hips were in agony by the time l got back and were wanting to know where that Multi was!
    the wife did say that she wasn't sure what bike l would return on. will hopefully be both returning soon to take it out again for the day - will see how she likes it on the back. very impressed with it.
    I am located near Rugby and Leamington Spa - always welcome to call in if your in the area. Cheers

  3. It was a cracking afternoon! Glad you got home safely and with a fresh MOT too mate. Pace was fine to willingham, you certainly seemed to gel with the multi and got in to a nice rythm :)

    Great seeing you again, will most certainly give you a shout if we're heading down your way. Give us a shout if your coming back up and I'll come and buy you and the Mrs a cuppa at Willingham if I'm home.

    The trick you need to utilise here is getting the wife to love being on the back of the multi, and then use that to your advantage by telling her that your willing to buy it for her comfort when going out for a blast with you. You then get to keep the 748 and take the multi home to be its stable mate :D
     
  4. And in May Ben's joining the Brexit team to get us all the best deal :blush:
    Devious little....
     
  5. Great! Glad to hear you're free that weekend.
    I'll be posting up details soon. Ride out will be on Sat 2nd September
    It's a way off so hope to meet up before then.

    Cheers , Chris
     
  6. Thank you for the ride this afternoon gentlemen, a fantastic bit of road with a decent few folk! Hope to do it again before too long, although if we could meet somewhere easier that'd be ideal- I'm now an expert on housing estates of Lincoln having had a long browse around them on my way to the meet!

  7. Good to hear from you. I guess you're back home now? How many times did you fall off on the way back? :grinning:
    We'll try and find a spot on a Lincolnshire housing estate for the next meet. Must admit Lincoln isn't the easiest place to find your way around.

  8. Oh, just the five!!!
    I'm definitely improving though. It was six last time - although that was on a longer ride....

  9. Sounds like you guys had a cracking day.
    We didn't get on the go till late....
    Popped along to willy woods, but was the only duke there so guessed you guys had long gone.... it was getting somewhat chilly too !!
    Hoping to catch up with you guys at some point soon.
    Managed the first little blast on my own on the 1198S too.... oh she's lively

  10. If it's dry on Saturday I will be riding through the wolds to Cadwell to watch a bit of club racing
     
  11. I've just arrived back offshore I'm afraid. Hence, won't be about at the weekend :(

    Hope you have a good one though! I'm sure there will be plenty of other opportunities for us to meet / have a ride out :)
     
  12. As mentioned in the above post, I've just arrived back at work and having withdrawals from the bike already lol...

    Just wondering if any of you fine Lincolnshire Ladies and Gents fancy a ride out next time I'm home?? At the moment, I'm available both the weekend of the 8th/9th April and 22nd/23rd April...

    Was thinking maybe a ride up to Squires to meet up with some of our fellow Yorkshire members... If the weather plays ball obviously, as our Yorkshire friends seem to be a bit soft and aren't keen on getting cold hands ;)

    Anyone fancy it? and any preference out of the two weekends?

    Obviously, anyone else who fancies joining us is more than welcome too :D

    @Carr01 @Exige @El Toro @greencat @cleedubber @Ian @Birdie @bettes @Gp80 @Coffey @Dutchy916 @higgy748 @Rebel @Christy @kartman

    I have been through the thread and Tagged those who previously mentioned they fancy meeting up and a ride out, however I'm sure there will be others who may fancy it and as stated above, all welcome :) The more the merrier ;)

  15. My SFS has just come off the road and my 1098R won't be on the road until May as it's a soft southern one apparently - or it could be me saving a few pennies waiting for the insurance renewal. So only a hard R1 on the road at the moment :)

  16. Nothing quite like the wallet of a Yorkshire Man :Hilarious:

    Weekend of the 22nd/23rd is only a week early for the 1098R to come out to play... :upyeah:

    I'm sure we will be able to make an exception for you on this occasion if you decide to come on the R1... So long as you park it at the opposite end of the car park from the Duc's :D
     
  17. It parks where it likes, it's hard: it has California Cycleworks stickers on it :D

  18. Definition of a Yorkshire man - Just like a Scotsman but without the sense of generosity :)
