Just done a 10 day weather forecast check...and it's looking good for Sunday

Saturdays forecast is not so good...how about we make it a 10 o'clock meet up at Box Hill?...it might give a bit of time for the roads to dry if the weather is a bit dodgy on Saturday...I reckon this is going to be a last minute decision anyway..give me a call on 01293 532328 to finalise.

The organizer did phone me and now my zed is entered into the show

Have to get there by 11.00

They said it's best to get there early as it's a bit manic around 11.00 with people who trailer there bikes there :evil:

I'm sorry but all bikes SHOULD be ridden to shows in my opinion :!:

Or at least they get 50 extra points if they do !

Your spot on there guyzed all show bikes should be ridden to shows.

The trouble is that when it comes to a Concourse D`Elegance competition those that are trailered are at an advantage.

I question the Concourse bores !

Slightly misguided people with their own opinions of what constitutes excellence :shi

They should have a category for the best vehicle not owned by a slightly misguided person with their own opinion of what constitutes excellence

Hmm you could be on dodgy ground there! I have been told a lot of the Z1OC "specials etc" travel in white vans or trailers.......
I am with Guy on this, bikes should be ridden not trailered.......

Nice one Guy..In my opinion they might as well hand you the winners trophy on the way in

No probs with getting to Brighton if we meet at Box Hill at 10.00. I'll speak to you later in the week.

I`ve just been out in the garage polishin` the bike and had some severe remorse for my last remark.

That Z1R on these pages is fantastic ! Don`t get me wrong I love it, and I wish I had a trophy cabinet big enough to contain it and several other bikes.

Isn`t that it though ? There are two categories. Those used, and those not !

I wish I had a mint H2 but I don`t have Ã‚Â£10k to spend and if I did then I would ride it and ruin it !

That`s it then. Organisers of competitions should have seperate castegories "Ridden / Driven" and Not Ridden !

Nuffink wrong with a trailer.........

Without my one, I wouldn't have been able to do Santa Pod :wink:

Just sold me red one to Ludders & upgraded to a twin trailer :shock:

Gonna trailer your bike to Brighton then Piggy :?:

Pigford · #26 PostAuthor: **Pigford** » Mon Oct 06, 2008 7:41 pm

Would love to but still trying to earn back the brownie points I had to 'borrow' for Santa Pod :roll:

Got relations coming down anyway :evil:
