Good to see Ton out enjoying his bike.
Now time for your tartan blankets and hot coco before bed.
It was a grand a day out.
Does anyone have any rotational injuries after today?
Nope. Druidhs majic hat kept us all safe
It's like the krankies
Was going to say Laurel and Hardy with some extra.
Fantastic!

AAGHH, leave them for others to see!!
Next time I'm out I'm putting a Daff in me lid. Druidh's set a trend me thinks.
fanatastic day out. good company, good food and a good ride.
i forgot how far 40 miles is......... 😀
Did Ton sit on Druidhs handlebars? Looks like you had a great day.
Were you on one of the old railway lines?
meh, I was stuck in a car most of the weekend...major envy....
TooTall - we got onto the old railway line at Lyne Station, hoping to make it all the way to Peebles but we turned back at a tunnel. I think Ton has a morbid fear of the dark.....
Ride around with flowers in your helmet and you really will be "out".esselgruntfuttock - Member

That tunnel is a beaut....did it as part of a loop a week or so back, it goes about half a mile but on a bend so after about 10m you literally can't see your hands on the bars. Good choice to avoid it unless you lads had a light with you. We didn't....anyway glad you lads had a guid day out!
We had one tail-light between us. 😀
Excellent...
Nice to see Ton on his bike 😀
Ton is STWs very own man in black.Which of the other two is June Carter?

TJ I always imagined you'd be more like Norah Batty,,,
Nice one and a great day for it...
Sad to have missed the ride but hopefully there will be another soon..
5th picture says it all, great to see you on two wheels Ton....
Will we see you at SSUK this year?
Is that stretch of road, with the Daffs, the B712 just West of Peebles?
It is indeed the B712.
Looks like the "final" (hopefully) debate on helmets including practical testing. And the answer, after 40m of chatting, is........?
Tea n Scones? Peebles must've been all out of fist pie, eh? 😉
Did you get some uplifts in this weekend Ton? How did it go?

ski, i do hope so mate. and if i carry on feeling good i cant see why not.
just need to send my postcard in.
GW, i did, but i was done for after 3.
a culmination of 3 days riding did me in, last time i rode 3 days back to back was 18mnth ago.
got to say that the uplift stuff is fantastic.
That stretch of road always makes me smile - with about 2 miles of continuous daffs outside the farm.
where is that ? ton looking like john tomac there , great stuff
Good to hear you enjoyed it . 😀 What bike did you use in the end?
