ABR Island Rally

[Tyrant68]

Mike will you do another to Piel this year?
400 has just cost a bomb to put right and 640 needs a new cam and followers/rockers.
Bread and water for me for the next millenium :laugh:

Sorry Ann,

only one planned for this year. And all depends on how successful it is as to wether there will be one next year. Like I said, unique opportunity to ride to an island for the night.

You need to replace your fleet of "Keeps Taking Money" machines. Mine was a bottomless pit......but saying that the Husky is still costing me just as much to keep off road.

I think its the way we ride and service them Mike :laugh:
Shame, we will have to have a Peaks meet up then at some point
Hope the weather is good for you, enjoy the weekend

Ill have you know, mine gets a service after every ride. OK, it gets a £1 jetwash at Asda after every ride. :laugh:

Yes to Peaks.

Big smiles bike coming back tomorrow, thankyou to Southport Superbikes for (yet again) exceptional service. Had a nasty do with my chain snapping and doing some damage. Only got a top box on (F650GS) and some throwover panniers yet to be played with, so will be spending the next few days figuring out how to get 2 sleeping bags a tent 2 mats and an 11 year old on ready for the Piel weekend.

Would have travelled up on the friday too, but unfortunately I am working nights on the friday night (12 hours) so will try to grab an hour on the sofa on Saturday morning before setting off about 11:00ish, hoping for a reasonably lively night to keep me awake on the Saturday night.

[tea007]

I'm coming
So will be lively
Lol

[Al Danby]

Anyone else taking their kids ???????

[kojak]

Ok I'm up for this. Been lurking for some time now but can't ignore an ABR event on my doorstep. I went across to Piel on the ferry a couple of weeks ago in what felt like a force five. Hope the ride over is less eventful :woohoo:

[Mad Cow]

I'm definitely coming, got the Friday afternoon off work, so I nice leisurely ride up and camping at Baysbrown Farm in Langdale, then the trial ride with Mike on Saturday morning and see the rest of you at Snab Point I the afternoon.....

Only eight more sleeps :laugh:
