If you join him, how will he recognise you, do you stick out in the crowd? Looking at your profile pic you seem quite normal to me!!!! :silly:

I've lost a bit of weight since my trip, I'm just dense. :whistle:

Hi

It's been a while since I updated this thread, but as they say, No news is good news!!

The guys at http://www.adventurebikefestival.co.uk have come to the party and donated 2 x £50 tickets to their great looking event. The Adventure Bike Festival is a riding event, for Adventure, trail and enduro bikes, with amazing road routes to extreme enduro. Set in amazing scenery, with workshops, films and other riding activities. It’s a weekend for like minded people to get together and ride!

These tickets will be raffled off at the HUBB meeting 31st May - 2 June. Check out all the great prizes that will be raffled off at the the HUBB meeting, so many good things are up for grabs that it's almost worth going just for that ;) Remember, these goodies are just the bits that are being donated via ABRAC http://www.abrac.org.uk/sponsors.html

The HUBB guys have so much more stuff going on that you really should check out their site and book your tickets as numbers are limited. Check out their website here

Here is Paddy Tyson, Editor of http://overlandmag.com/ trying the baton out for size.

So, what can we do at the Ace tomorrow for a decent photo op and who wants to carry the baton on the start of it's journey now the Fox's aren't doing the start of their RTW?

And 'yes' Freeloadeur, that is my shite garage in the background, how jealous are you!!!! ;)
