end of the year RMS coast run?

[And1]

I might be about to take some photography shots, have a munch and a cruise if folk don't mind - I'll fire any of the photos to @Mabb or somebody who knows the respective owners/bikes (if I'm quick enough to shutter anyone going past )

Thanks for turning up today Andy to take pics..shame it didn't turn out as we planned.

Quere craic when the only person turned up for a bike run is in a car.

 

[genman]

not long back myself...was out later than planned and the roads til Carnlough were crap...f'in roadworks non stop and no beggers doing any work.
Brave old wind after Ballycastle and a good number of bikers out.
Bumped into the usual bunch of car muppets that think they are as quick as a bike and then a nice run home albeit partly on the Frosses to see how the roadworks AREN'T progressing....no wonder it takes forever to get roads build here...no ones ever working on them but their damn good at caking the roads in muck.

 

[Evoarrow]

Well I seen a bit of the coast road, sorry I still don't like that road.
Thanks Andy.

 

[Mabb]

Tbh it was a waste of a tank of fuel and a decent Sunday morning..could have been out having a good hoke around some decent roads where we normally ride.

The coast road is **** simple as that..I can't believe how many bikes I seen..if that's as good as it gets for those boys I don't know why they bother.

Maybe if ya got up early and had a spin down it before traffic it mite be ok for a quick blast but if anyone here is actually interested in riding their bikes on some quality empty biking roads give me a shout.

Lol nightmare, sure the steak here in Portrush is on the go, apologies for not getting photos of your "Sunday special" tricks, maybe next time.

Turns out Andy is a stone throw away which worked out well. Good to meet you folks, I'll fire over the photos I did get after some editing

You must have passed me at some point after Carnlough in the silver z4, the route was ridiculous busy today and we left early enough- on a clear day without roadworks is usually peaceful and fun

Might have passed you. . Green zzr.. i was generally cruising to see how the bike behaves.
Couldn't believe some of the roads... big gravel filled slices across the road on approach to corners.

 

[R1andy]

Hey! Big turn out today lol
Thanks Andy for the lift home, saved me from getting on the back of Mabb , which is not good haha.

Surprised how easily the RGV cruised at a sensible speed, I thought it would have been a serious hold up.

Cheers and thanks again Andy, PM me your address and what you drink.

Unlimited coronas I'll set up a cheque book and pen no probs at all though - absolute nightmare, the rest of the coast road today was packed out quite depressing, hope you got sorted ok

 

[And1]

Some randoms in here too, thought I'd post the ones we did get, would've loved to grab some action shots, next time though

and the team kit car

 

[Bobster]

Thats a sad state of affairs Mabb, wrong time for the coast and it more about then glen roads now linking onto the coast.

 

[Brian mc21]

Have a want for one of these. Keep the NSR company in the garage.

 

[NotKG]

was this a test run?
it's hardly end of year, i went to donegal and didn't think you'd have a run a week later.
come on, get a flyer made and pick a date end of October time, what most summer(fair weather riders) clubs call end of year.
i remember being out on boxing day with NIB and a new years day.
didn't know the old NIB was so full of fa*nys either, rain and snow never stopped a run

 

[genman]

old NIB squad have all but gone in terms of rideouts.
I only did a few but lost the feel for them.
