    I haven't practised my slow speed stuff for a while, so does anyone mind if I swing past and do my own thing in the corner? I'm happy to demonstrate stuff if it helps. :)

    Just make sure you wear ATGATT (All The Gear All The Time)...
    That means flanno, trackies, ugg boots... It helps if you have oversized mudguards, RM Williams stickers and at least 7 aerials on the bike too. :p

    Has been a while since we've caught up mate!
    You going to come on the ride as well? Means we will have a few of us to sprinkle through the learner group like last time.

    Could of taught them how to pick up a motorcycle after a crash. Very easy to do, even with a Harley.

    Thanks again [MENTION=23043]DJY[/MENTION] for the advice, and thanks [MENTION=14103]andtfoot[/MENTION] for the demos. Thanks also to [MENTION=37263]Snuggle5[/MENTION] for playing TEC.

    Had a useful, if not always successful day. At least I remembered to turn the ignition off when I got home.
