You ok Digger?

Yeah, bit pissed off that I missed a rare riding opportunity, that's all. Rear wheel bearing picked the best time to go - a mile from home - thought it was a bit squirrelly when I wasn't on a frosty bit of road - quick check showed the bearing had cried "enough!" Crept home at walking pace & all ok. Could have been more of an issue if I'd not noticed it when I did - 10 mins later I'd have been caning it over the back road from Barton to Brigg :shock:

Sorry to hear your bad news Digger but at least you are in one piece and noticed the problem close to home and not in the middle of nowhere. I was looking forward to my Digger hug as well. Never mind I can claim double next time ;) :4roz:

:shock: How lucky were you that you noticed it in time. Am glad you're ok. If one ride is all you missed out on I'd count that a a Godsend I'd think mate - at least you can get the bike fixed and ride again xxx

Digger - sorry to hear about your rear wheel bearings :(....

By eck, that was a Image day. At least we enjoyed brilliant :sun: :sun: :sun:

Another successful 'CJ Mystery Tour' completed. I would like to emphasis the word mystery because it certainly was to me. I had planned to use a combination of 'B' and unclassified roads to get to Skegness but ended up covering most of the county. I don't know where I went wrong exactly but at least it was a scenic tour. Still, Kev's now got some decent mileage on his new 1125CR :D...

Thanks to everyone who turned out and respect to Claire :4roz: for riding her own bike with a dodgy knee. It was a good ride and the fish & chips (eventually :oooops:) in Skegness went down a treat.

We covered 283 miles in total and the Ulysses performed faultlessly.

Left to right: Jane, Brian, Claire, Rick, Darren, David and Kev.

Loos and hot drink stop 'somewhere in Lincolnshire' - at least I think we were still in Lincolnshire :?....

CJ Tours and fish & chips - the winning combination :P...

A few pictures for Kev....
