Default Northants new year meet

Anyone fancy a bit of a blast before the New Year meet at the Q.E.

Plenty of good back roads and decent pubs for lunch around the Rutland
area if anyone's interested.

Meet up on 7th at 2ish in Corby, then bit of a blast round Rutland (I'll plan a good route), call in at a pub for drink/food (Yvonne said if there's not too many she will cook a chilli, so it will be back to our house for the food), bit more of a blast back over to Northampton for the meet at the QE.

Went to visit Luke and Nic for New Years, but twisted my foot whilst riding A_Little_Feisty's BMX, would of been understandable if I was doing hard core ramp work like I used to years ago but no it was a slow stumble

Diagnosis from A+E sheet.....

The Base of 2nd MT R Foot........................ sounds like a football injury


Ment to be Skiing in 3weeks with Gary,Luke and Nic

Sounds nasty.

If you live in an oxygen tent for the next 2 weeks you may still be able to go skiing. Check with your manager first though.

If he hadn't been on the pist(e) in the first place he might not have fell off ... it's a good job your driving skills are better than your riding ones ... ... I think we all learned a lesson though - bmx + pitch-black + skate-park + 3am + alcohol = not a good mix!!! ... same time, same place next year then???

Luke and I won't make the meet this weekend as I am on call

In my defence, ive crashed harder and ridden bigger ramps sometimes even after drinking proper westcountry scrumpy!!

And walked away. lol

This was just an unlucky moment, im getting older, old people do things like fall over, 'gravity sucks'

As for next year Nic, im well up for repeating the wkend with you crazy kids, minus the mishap ofcourse.

oh and a slightly smaller goose !

You finally got to drive the Wagon thou !

Weve all crashed and ridden bigger ramps after drinking too much make sure your on top of her next time m8.

Your not getting older its just the millions more brain cells you frazzled this year trying to keep up with stiffler.

Anyway I will be up for Sunday for a run with you bushwackers.

We've been out to plan a route, and think we should meet up in the hotel car park, junction 7 off the A14 (at Kettering) at 2pm. Meeting at Kettering as this will be an easier place for everyone to find.

As it's still getting dark early, and most of the roads are back roads, we thought it would be better to eat later on if thats ok with everyone (but stop for a drink and a break near Rutland water)

As there seems to be quite a few cars coming now, can you let me know if you want to eat, because I may need to book tables.

Oh, and don't wash your cars as the roads are filthy!

Craig & Yvonne.

p.s. get well soon Andy

Good idea Tim, if we can't get in anywhere on route, we can head back to the QE to eat.

See you all on Sunday.
