Raptor Chapter Annual Meet

Post by dizzyblonde »

Thought I would share my photos of the weekend here instead of the other thread, as most people look in this section at pictures :photo:

So, first off, riders and rides!

Really nice pics, cheers. You saw much more than me. I don't move round too much when it's hot and spent most of the afternoon panned out on the grass and I've got a bright red face to prove it!

In your first group of photos there is a picture of CTs bike - about the 7th pic down I think - with a BMW K1600 behind it. You can just see the big dink in the BMWs wheel rim at the bottom where he presumably ran over a tall kerb at 90mph. Wouldn't have fancied riding that home much.

The Bmw is a K12, it belongs to my mate malcolm.
He was at our weekend last year, straight off the back of a European tour on his Sv...older chap, specs.

Norrie, you were sat with us in the hangar talking to him for a while with us.

He knows about the dink.
On the B709 near the Tibetan Temple Langholm in heavy rain I went through a stream running all the way across the road, hiding a very large pot hole. Rear wheel is also very slightly dinged. Cheryl almost landed on my neck, a real shake up to say we were only doing 35 ish. Relieved we were taking our time..
No all's good. I hope to send it down to Motorliner and have it repaired when I have the tyre replaced, probably the week before AR.
