    Meeting at 12.30, leaving at 1.00 from the car park of O'Shea's pub, Clonskeagh Rd, D4. I have been a few runs before as mentioned, ( not saying I'm the expert :o !!!! ), only problem is some people turning up with 1,000+ cc bikes to a ' newbie ' run and blazing away only to be waiting at 2 or 3 villages ahead for everyone else to catch up etc and then repeating it all again. To be honest apart from showing off, I don't see any point in such a run and it's not fair to Newbies or pople out for a handy spin. In my experience, if a group stay to the speed limit, it should be ok for everyone to keep up regardless of their experience or size of bike. Weatherwise Sunday from mid day on is supposed to be ok.

    We'll probably have a stop in Laragh and on through the gap. Anyway it's a learning curve and only 3 of us may be there, but it's a start, see ya there.

    The whole point of a group rideout is that you stick together, enjoy the spin together and reach your destination as a group.

    Enjoy the spin :)

    thanks for today, nice to meet you mate.

    From that pic Ed, I badly need a new bike !!!!!! :o:D Some acceleration on that ZZR Kevin, bet those Germans in the camper van are still wondering what passed them on the straight before Longwood.

    Wouldn't make it next Sunday as Dublin are playing in Croke Park (as you now know I'm a Gaelic games fan, must say the game between Tipperary and Cork was first class and worth me stopping to watch. No point in holding you up either !!!!! ). Probably bump into some of you at Skerries in two weeks. No worries.

    Would have been perfect for me Wonda, Im off work the weekend. Unfortunately the gear I ordered from Hein Ger on the 10th of this month still has not arrived. I spoke with customer service guy on Tuesday and he said it shipped on Thur 21st and could I give it another day or or so for it to arrive:(
    On their web site my order status says ''Processing'' so as far as I can tell it has not even shipped yet. I havent sat on the bike since myself and smiler popped out to you that time:( Realistically I should have popped out on a spin each day since my IBT to keep my confidence up. Looks like ill be staining another pair of jocks when I do finally get out again:p

    Sure come out in anyway with us on sunday...if you want we can meet you in ur area for a spin it does not bother us. Getting you feeling comfortable is the key and we can go on from there.

    Double up on the Denims again and use the bros Textile jacket. And you will be grand.

    Send me your mobile via the pm will ya....we can go for a gentle spin mate nothing mad....but you will learn alot of smiler. ;)
