Yep, good weekend, nice to put some faces to names. Definately worth the effort.
I mean I even got to meet Cliff Ballington, well that's what the signature says
North circular escapade was piss funny, cbr pilot got a bit of a shock, me I was wetting myself.
3 abreast on the M11 was a good 'un and the 'slightly naughty' behaviour on the A whatever was amusing.

Sounds like you had a good day out. Sorry I missed out this time.
Hope we can do it again when summer comes.
Box Hill is my local gathering point.

Luckily, I ain't wearing any !
Great pics, looks like a top day out. Wish I lived a bit closer.
Anyone else off to Stafford this weekend ? I've arranged to meet Kork there and Chris Pearson will be taking along another KR500 and firing it up several times during the show. I'll be there on the Saturday I think.

Bloody hell Cliff, were expecting a chemical attack?
That picture could have been taken in 1991

We had a laugh about my "Cold War" NBC suit.
Tell you what, the charcoal lining keeps the wind and damp out!
Not so sure it would work as intended though

.
I wore it as i was concerned about entering the new "Low Emission Zone".
It must be bad down there, cause "Ken" would not have brought the zone in if the air were clean???

Well done to Martin for getting his immaculate KR-1 in the Ace feature, Classic Mechanics July issue! We're starting to get a KR in nearly every issue now. Whose turn is it next month?
When were the photos taken... there's hardly any bikes in the pics, and it was packed all day. Must have buggered off early!
Shame about the dodgy lookin' geezer loitering round it though!!! Ha!
Wakasaki also got his KR-R in there too. Keep up the good work!
