Rain overnight didn`t dampen the ardour. Paul Mc met me at mine and we set off straightaway to meet Bunny. We didn`t hang around just got some fuel and set off for Boxhill. Somehow it was 10 o`clock before we got to Rykas and Z1000Chris was there already. A cup of tea and bacon buttie and we were off.

The wetness was now pretty much gone from the roads but we took it steady anyway as the lines of spillage were clearly evident on roundabouts. Bunny had to stop for fuel :roll: and we pressed on. A wrong turn, by yours truly, added 10 miles but we were in Brighton as soon as we could practically have done so.
The show tent was full so we parked up behind the trikes. Now the main reason for entering the show is the security of parking and also it puts us more than halfway along the drive so it is easier to get out at the end of the day. The drive is about a mile long and is crammed every year with bikes and visitors. Not so easy to move about.

Bunny found a badge stall, where I found some pin badge security stoppers.

Within the show tent there wasn`t much of interst but there was this.

I bumped into Brian450 and his charming wife. I say charming because her head is like a diary and after consulting it she said it would be okay for him to attend Treffen 2012. :D

We took a stroll along to the entrance and sat down for fish and chips. Much more civilised than those awful plastic trays.

A few pics of what we saw along the way.

We came back for the judging where we saw this chap in charge of one section.

None of us won anything so we cleared off pretty quickly. A pleasant ride back to Boxhill for a cuppa and a mooch.

Then it was the usual southern stretch of the M25 mayhem and home.

A good day to end the season. (The boots are now going in the loft) :cry:
