My riding highlights.



Overall it has been a wet summer, but with some memorable moments.
Every Sunday, come hell or high water, a group of us meet locally for a quick blast round the Yorkshire Dales, Cumbrian mountains or Lancashire Hotspots.
Ken and Keith have joined from time to time and Chris is now a regular and fully paid up member.
It is Chris who provided one of the highlights of the Year. To see him attempt to tow his stricken mate, Dave, (XT350 with broken chain)with his brand new KTM was priceless.
I will leave it up to Chris to explain how Dave was left sat in the middle of the road whilst his Yamaha was dragged on it's side at full speed up the Bingley Relief Road.
I havn't ridden Chris's bike yet - the roads have always been damp when Chris was out, but I have ridden another friends identical bike and ---WOOOOOOW!! - what a bike. I have never ridden anything so small, light and powerful.
It handles like a 410 supermoto, but goes like a 999 Ducati.
