Last Sunday actually but I only got the picture off the website today. About a 60-mile ride with around a thousand other bikes raising money for my local helicopter air ambulance (Essex and Herts.) This is me arriving at the end of the ride, North Weald airfield in Essex where another thousand bikes were already waiting. Good day out.

Sadly, as one confirms another cancels. I thought I had confirmed getting out of work commitments in mid-July, but sadly things have changed and I need to be here in town the third week of July (the 16th...) - so I cancelled my room (regular king bed) at the Rocket a few hours ago (Brenda sounds lovely on the phone!) and it is up for grabs. Too bad - I was looking forward to catching up with some familiar faces, chasing down some VFR's and looking forward to stretching the legs on my new Tiger 1200 XCA ... oh well :( If any Vancouver area riders are planning on heading through the Kootenays on their first day and want some company as far as Nelson, let me know. Ride safe everyone - and take lots of photos!
