Ralphy & John get stuck in within 5 minutes of arriving



Getting busier

a good day out some great bikes and a good turn out of zeds.

pigford you only got parked at the front because you didnt know your right from your left, (the parking man said park it on the right and you parked on the left, )

looking forward to the york rally now

[RALPHARAMA]

It was really great to put so many faces to names. As usual I got everyone all mixed up in no time. Especially Bedlow who looks like a reet bloota in his avatar but isn't, well not compared with me anyway!

Bunny brought a brake hose for me to give to a chap who will hopefully join the club. Many thanks for that and in the excitement of arriving and being surrounded by so many kwakas I forgot to ask what I owe you for it

As our Mark points out John and myself just beat him and Mikey to the grub bar so we could feast on burgers and chips before the big queues ... but what he is failing to mention is that he attacked our chips like a one man locust swarm!!!

I now know why our Pigford requires only one disc!! The bugger rarely gets out of first!

[mikey]

Ralph thanks for the free air at yours me z goes
better round corners now

[Pigford]

Its OK Mikey, I didn't mind hanging back with you mate, whilst Ralphy went hacking off.. Anyway, I didn't put me feet down on EVERY bend
I think he could smell the cooked breakfast
I also managed to get nearly 50mpg

[Geoff Meager]

Glad to hear you lot had a good day out.....shame I could'nt make it...
never mind see you at the York Bash

[Geoff Meager]

Hi, nice to see all the old stuff out there was some stunning stuff. Nice to Molosserman again.
1st pic on this page, green zed with Ohlins shocks and uprated wheels and brakes. Met this bloke on the side of the road doing a plug chop. Thought it was a stunning bike then and its a favourite on the zrxoc as well. Member here?
