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 !!
