Thanks all for a good ride, as Ian say's a special well done to the newbie's. Punctures, falls, dips in the water all helped to make it an enjoyable day. Hope Jamie got to eat his dinner, and not wear it, for being late home, and twiggy hope you recover well mate and be fit for thursday.Liking the names by the way, rider's dip and twiggy's tumble lol. I will post pics later although similar to Ian's.
