IXXRA......The Home Of The Superblackbird

Mine's been today on the Staithes Run.

What a fekkin stupendous day its been and commiserations to all those that missed it, including Grant, yes fekkin Grant, IXXRA's biking answer to rock musics Harvey Goldsmith. Full details to follow in the Rideout Report but here's jest a little taster to whet ya appetite
Me sat on a bench at Helmsley with the sun cracking the flags and chewing the cud with a surprise attendee , Barry Harper at 10.45a.m.
"I'll give Grant a ring to see where they are"
"Ring ring. Ring ring"
"Hello......crackle crackle sssss hisssssss crackle"
"Hello grant , its Tim here, where the fook are you? You anywhere near Helmsley yet?"
" ssshhhhiiiihiiiisssss wooooo, crackle crackle ( grant has a Sena20 LOL )"
" hello grant did you get that?"
" Hi Tim, yea got that mate"
"So where are you then?"
" I'm on the Mwoooohooooohisssssssblurp"
"The M what?"
"The M6 Tim"
"Sorry grant, but it sounded like you said you was on the M6"
"Yes Tim, I did"
"Grant, ya ca't be....the M6 is on the other side of the country"
"I know. Im on the M6 on my way home. Bit of a mishap"
"Maxx and Dark Angel are on their way"

.....at this point I dropped my phone laffing.

...Aye... 'es a luvvly lad but he's also a bidduva fookin' mad professor

He certainly has an interesting riding style - one might say "absolutely riveting" in the way he attacks the bends

Anyway - hope he made it back OK and certainly hope to see him out and about again, soon.

Be nasty if that went wrong, eh, pal?
