I was just reading about the airport in my lunch break. My office is right under the flightpath and I used to enjoy watching all the weird and wonderful planes come in especially on a windy day. I wonder what they will do with the place. Right next to it is the old Ryton plant, now demolished, and that has a sign up promising industrial units but to be honest I can't see anyone investing in industrial units in this climate.
Cue the background music.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ2oXzrnti4
.On a more positive note. Drinks, trackstand practice, short drag races is good. Just require a bit of notice.

aslong as it's not pissing it down with Rain mate I don't care what we do aslong as I get to ride lol
Trackstand practice / boot about the town sounds like a good early sunday afternoon plan

12 would be ok for me. I was planning on doing some Christmas shopping but I'm only fooling myself and the reality is that I'll leave it all to the very last minute like every year. :-)

I don't finish till the 23rd :( But I got back on the 4th too.
Seriously considering a rear mudguard of some sort. Getting fed up with a wet arse. I can't find anything I like though. Maybe the Crud race guards...

Hah! That's awesome and ghetto all in one. Might consider it :)

I know my legs were covered when I got home, I wrote "hi" in the dirt and showed it Rob when we went the pub.
Also: I'm thinking of sporting some of these - so don't go telling everyone....
-
• #24
Perhaps some chaps? Could be a trend setter.
-
• #25
I'm not sure the chaps would look that good rolled up :P
Maybe track stand practice outside the Belgrade...? drag racing up the (now closed) airport runway? Drinking beer? Trackstands on the runway whilst drinking beer?
36cf - you mentioned long rides out past your way - keen now or when weather is warmer/road less filthy?
