Tuesday rideout?



Nights drawing in(!?!)Does anyone fancy a Tuesday night rideout? Went to the Shady Oak near Beeston Castle last year with Neil, great roads and a nice venue. Planning for Tues 5th aug if anyone wants to.7pm meet for 7.30 departure from clubbies. Let me know on 01244 401 423( shop) or text 07884 385462 to see if anyone is interested.

Directions - " From Chester head towards Tarporley on the A51. Turn right onto the A49 in the direction of Beeston. Turn right in Tiverton onto Huxley Lane. After approximately 1.5 to 2 miles turn left into Bates Mill Lane. The Shady Oak pub is on the left just before you approach the humpback bridge with a twist."

Somebody please remember as my arse and elbow have no sense of direction!!

Fort Invasion ,Cl;oud 9 ,29/06/2008

We had a really good turnout for this one .Twenty eight scooters left Clubbies bound for New Brighton .Our club numbers were boosted by the arrival of The Dabbers s.c. along with lads from Crewe and Winsford and even a guy from The Mysterons s.c. London (was this a navigation error on the M25 ? ! ! ).It was great to have such a good turnout .The route followed the usual shambles of losing a few at every set of lights and roundabout before leaving chester on the Parkgate rd.Things improved as we got out to Mollington,but not for long ,as it started to rain ,by Heswall it was pissing down and I finally stopped at Thustaston when I realised we only had four scooters ! Everyone had stopped on route to don wet weather gear .Bernie turned up in some high viz,dayglo pants that would give you a headache,if you wernt wearing sun glasses !wow !
Despite the discomfort everyone seemed in good spirits and we all arrived in New Brighton en masse. Lots of scooters were already there and Pete and Darren from Supertune arrived soon after us ,having nipped back to base to fit a replacement carb to Petes Lammy,so he could do the ride.Well done lads !
We all did our own thing from there on,the punk band Instant Agony were relentless in their set ,which was entertaining ,but didnt suit everyone ! Instant Agony fans and off spring provided alot of good people watching for the hour that we listened to the band .Everyone made their own way home in what turned out to be a sunny and windy afternoon . Thanks to Cloud 9 for the organisation and to Instant Agony for the visual experience ,oh ,and the music !!
