Yep, it was fricking cold. My Harley carburetter froze up and would not shut. My visor was frozen over on the inside and I can confirm that adrenaline is brown and temporarily warming The Memsahib sat on the back in blissful ignorance unaware of the dramas but now she knows, she ain't coming this year.

About 1.30 in a nice Red Buell

Great to meet up with the usual suspects, even those those that turned up late(r)!



For future reference, turning up when it's still dark is probably a bit (kin) early, tehe, at least we got to see (and more importantly hear) everyone else arrive.

Best vehicle, the yellow LC, it was the cacophony of sound and smell, honest......to hit three senses at the same time.....

Happy Boxing day to all, wherever you find yourselves, and whatever you are riding today

Me too... met up with a huge crowd at Market Rasen, who turned out for the Boxing Day VMCC run, there for an hour or so, then on to a nice Pub just outside Gainsborough, back via Willingham Woods.... Empty and closed , but I stopped in case Kev wandered past , then back home via Tealby top and Caistor.

An absolutely fab day for a ride out ........... even on an Enfield

I'd wandered the opposite way today and went to watch the beach racing

Worth getting up for, especially to blow the cobwebs away. Was good to see so many familiar faces there and had a good blast over to Romsey with Ray, hanging on to his tail at 110. The wind was up so the front end was getting lively!

Plenty of weird and wonderful machinery to look at at both locations.

Sorry I was late Mrs. P. , I didn't leave home until 7.20am.

Here's a few photos to catch the spirit of the morning, but I'm sure Steve will be along to share a few proper ones. Click the thumb to get the album.

Okay, OKay, ...I know....I'm guilty of not getting my a*se in gear and getting myself out of bed in time to be at this year's Wickham Square event etc. etc.

I have no excuse... I was just enjoying my bed too much...I don't often get the chance to ignore the alarms.... I am really regretting my slothness, cos I love the Wickham Square experience...

Note to myself...."get your fat, lard-a*se out of bed in time next year!!!!!!"
