If anyone is looking at this thread and can contact anyone in the group doing this run can they find out if everyone is OK, as they were supposed to meet me for lunch today but didn't turn up. If anyone has any information then please PM me. Ta JC
Great to hear from you. At least your all OK. I can't make it today but Sonia will look after you. Have a great time and maybe we'll meet up another time. JCx
Eventful ride home from Dover - caught in aseries of huge thunderstorms we got totally soaked and sought shelter overnight in a hotel , then all dried out we set off in the morning only for my rear wheel bearing to collapse 30 or so miles up the road.
The RAC did a fab job though - took the wheel off, sourced a bike shop with the right bearings in stock, drove me there, helped the guy in the shop get the utterly fucked bearing out, new bearings fitted, drove me back to the bike and refitted the wheel, andfinally we could ride home.
Only got back 20 or so hours later than planned, but hey, just makes for a more interesting tale :-)
Thanks again for a brilliant trip dad I think I can speak for everyone when I say you and tony did a fantastic job we couldn't have asked or wished for more the riders rest was just perfect cant wait for the next trip Oh Yes!!!
