IXXRA SSHHC Borders run

Postby jono49 » Sat Aug 06, 2016 10:54 pm

Well what a cracking day we had on the latest hush hush run in the Borders Glorious weather top class roads and riding from the riding gods on this forum :ride) :notworthy)
and top class accomodation at the Grahams in the re-furbished rooms, and discounted to IXXRA patrons for their loyalty over the years :thumbsup) nice one Stuart :clap:
first stop was the railway preservation outfit at Whitrope where the tunnel is!

Some of the attendees got right into the railway theme...

Being an SSHHC rideout we had to be discreet about our whereabouts...

Being in the company of Riding gods and culture vultures visits to historic building had to be on the agenda....

Hume castle

Hume castle is amazing for it's history but more than that, it's stunning vistas 8)
After this we headed oop Edinburgh way and down Peebles way for fuel and tiffin, then onto st Mary's Loch where there was much swapping of machinary to further improve riding skills, and evaluate other machines personally rather go on what the gobshite journos spout about machines they didn't get a backhander to promote :-?

So have I missed the post on this? I could've done this one, shame how it's going on here. Still, at least you all had a good rideout.

As this was a nice relaxed afair and in the company of proper rideout whores and culture vultures who take in their surroundings and not keep their helmets on awaiting their next fix on the road! there seemed endless amounts of time spent at places of interest and striking up conversations with fellow travellers like the guy from Tasmania and his wife from Kentucky USA (Home of Jack Daniels) we met at Hume castle, I mentioned to him I had spoken to a guy from Tasmania in the dales about a fortnight ago...."that's me brother" he announced he was riding a BMW! jawdropping fook me small planet or what? the guy I spoke to was on an BMWF800GS :D and it was him true enough! anyroad enough bollocks here's some more pics and stunning vista's as our Henry say's!
