I'd also like to thank Narna and all the staff at the foresters for a memorable weekend
Due to excess alcohol, liver damage, 3rd degree sunburn, and a iffy stomach, I'd also like to thank all those that attended and made a great and unforgettable weekend

Not any more I don't
My throat is still sore from laughing so hard I thought I was gonna pass out. (Though smoking like a trooper has probably not helped)
So, Off the beer for a few weeks now, However It was definately worth it.
PS: Mrs Riggsy is well happy I returned without a voice

I had to laugh when we stopped at a petrol station during the Snake Pass / Cat and Fiddle rideout and I said to Blizzard, who had been setting a good pace in the twisty bits: "It's great to be able to follow someone who knows the roads so well", and he replied: "Eh? Not me - I don't know them at all. I'm using the satnav to judge the corners..."
Still not sure if he was having me on, but whatever method used, top job Blizzard. Pleasure to ride with you and everyone else on such cracking roads in such cracking weather.

Wasn't having you on at all G.
I've never been across the Snake Pass before Saturday and it was the first time I've done the Cat and Fiddle in that direction.
I find it quite easy to glance down to see the general direction of the road and guage my speed accordingly. It's not as fast as knowing the road but it's enough that you don't slow down too much for slight bends

Speedtrips research:
So the continuing pirate career of Andrew (AB) Morgan was so secured. After the death of Morgan’s uncle (Edward Morgan), the governor of Jamaica chose Andrew Morgan to become the commander of the militia in Port Royal.
By 1668 Andrew was already an English vice admiral of a fleet of 15 ships.
At the same time pirates elected him to become the successor to Edward Mansfield (leader of all pirate activities in Jamaica). As an English officer and pirate general: Mr Morgan became the terror of all Spaniards in the West Indies, and the inventor of the Sauna.
