Did the photocall and ate some brekkie, then rode 7 hrs through the twisties back to a mate's place in Stirling. Adrenaline does funny things to you, as I felt great! There's just something special about doing nothing but riding, day after day. You do get knackered, but next day all you want to do is ride on. Covering big distances on two wheels (yes, 300 laps of a roundabout in a 1995 Seat Ibitha does count) is mega! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't wait to get off the thing and have not ridden it since 😳😂 But.... Would love to get back on it next year. Well done every single one of you, just a brilliant effort. Will throw some money in the pot tomorrow 👌 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1257 Posted June 22, 2022 Report Share Posted June 22, 2022 Surfaced at 08.30 after 3hrs kip post getting in at 4.45am. Did the photos had a lush square sausage bun and have just ridden home to Darlington. I will do a write up once it's settled in but until then I just want to thank each and every one of the pit stop crews...you were (are) amazing. 👌 14 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How he can even think about it is beyond me - I’d be full-on comatose still. As da yoot say - props to them all innit. He did that last year too.

James306 Posted June 23, 2022 Report Share Posted June 23, 2022 (edited) Well after half a decent nights sleep to try and recover, realising I've not got enough grip strength to bother holding a spanner (although the Rusty Tomato has already had a curiosity compression test this morning) I decided I'd spend a bit of time updating my project thread on here with a little write up on the day! Just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you to those on here who were part of the pit crews and those working away in the background, I didn't get enough of a chance to say it on the day because I was focused on getting away for the next pitstop again, but every stop was bloody awesome! Straight away a team of people there ready to clean visors, lube chains, top up oil and feed us with warm welcoming smiles! I easily could have spent half hour at each stop chatting if time allowed! Also massive thanks to John and Joe who worked their arses off from start to finish (plus no doubt no end of time put in during the lead up) What a fantastic day and experience the whole event has been! I've made some great friends along the way and have some great memories to take with me! Just wondering what bike to use next time P.s. I've just done a write up of the trip on my Project thread so if you like reading (or lots of pictures) and will be sat on the toilet for the next 10 minutes, then check it out!

Just wondering what bike to use next time Use the same bike but with added supercharger?😈 Good to meet you and cheers for being on here bunging updates of the build - half the challenge is throwing a bike together for the price and entertaining us all with comedy bodges! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
