    Jaysus, I never even thought of it! D'UH!!! :rolleyes: I might take it off and bring it down the next time as I need a tyre as well. :P

    Well in fairness by the next time you're coming down here again the shop will probably be closed up fully and Davy won't be doing bike tyres so they haven't bought in anymore bike stuff (valves etc.) since the Council were out :( feck it anyway (sorry for hijacking)

    If it's pissing, I can't go as I run race tyres on the bike (basically road legal slicks) and they don't work in wet weather. But hopefully it won't be.

    Get onto the N4 and keep going westbound. You'll pass a number of exits for Lucan, Maynooth etc. You'll eventually come to an exit for Clane & Kilcock. Go up the slip road to the roundabout. Take the 4th exit off, down to the next little roundabout and take the 2nd exit off. Go straight for about half a mile and the Esso is on the right. I'll send you that PM anyway.

    Just in the door now. Great spin and savage roads! Kudos to Pipz on her R125 staying mid-pack for most of the day, fair play. Nice to meet everyone. I'll stick up some pics later after I eat and shower.

    Til next time! :D

    No power involved at all its a spin to enjoy, not to race.Wait for Wando-boy post. He is the "leader".

    The run we had today (there was a split and there was two runs) went to Carlingford and there was a girl on an R125 and she was with us the whole time, so you're not underpowered and you won't be left behind, regardless of who you go out with.

    As my other post, there was 2 runs today. The one I was on started in Kilcock, onto Trim via Summerhill, into Athboy and stopped in Kells briefly. Then we went onto Castlebellingham where we had something to eat, and then onto Carlingford. Coming back we just stayed on the N52 the whole way from Carlingford to Ardee, then the N2 into Slane and into Navan...

    Was a great spin after the initial delay (problem with one of the bikes) which totally put us on the back foot. Then we hooked up with another rider (big dandolph) which delayed us another bit. But was a great day with great company.

    Sorry I did not get a chance to hook up with you other guys, but I did see you on my way over to meet bikerguy and it was a fine convoy yiz had going there.

    There's usually a spin somewhere every Sunday (depending on the bike forum) but either Wonda3oy or myself will throw up a post if we have one going.
