Thanks to the usual suspects for making this RT UK ‘24 meet a good couple of days, and a special thanks to Capt Sisko (Nick) for riding down this morning, and leading the ride, it was lovely to meet you, another night for myself Sullivj and MikeS to enjoy and a great ride home planned tomorrow.

Hi All, Great to meet up and put faces to names, and not a problem to lead the ride today. I hope everyone enjoyed it, AND wasn't the weather good! Leaving the Gore-Tex gloves on worked perfectly at warding off evil showers and I didn't see so much as a drop all the way back. All in about 240miles of smiles.

Enjoy your beer tonight :cheers:

Lovely impromptu uk meet up. Great to see the usual suspects and pleasure to meet Capt Sisko and put another face to a name. Had little bit of rain on way home but nothing much.

The 2nd night banter continued over a glass or two of red wine at a cheeky little Italian! Great weekend chaps.

Captain Sisko did a cracking job of leading our ride today. Inspired confidence and kept us all well within the speed limits - thanks very much Nick.
