Right guys, gonna give this one last try for this year.
Have made several efforts this year to get everyone together but none have been much of a success, so if this one doesn't go well then someone else can try next year.

Sunday 28th September, idea is to meet up at Dundrod paddock area then head to Joeys Memorial and stop at Joeys Bar.
Would be a great photo opportunity to have the bikes lined up.

So who's in? I'm even hoping my Type 1 will be ready in time!

Yip, stick my name down. I'm a tad reluctant to commit myself, cos the last time I said I'd definitely be there (albeit on the ZRX) fate had other ideas and provided me with a blown radiator hose, just to remind me who was boss.
But, what the hell, let's pretend I'm confident about this...... Yes, count me in.
What sort of guarantees can you provide regarding weather? Can it be in writing? If possible, can you arrange a nice, sunny, warm day? Not too hot, we don't want boiled plums. And if everyone in County Antrim could have mislaid their car keys on that morning it would be handy too. See what you can do.
Cheers.

Look forward to meeting you.

Unbe-bloody-lievable!!!
You know what I said about being reluctant to commit myself to going, due to fate's on-going conspiracy to foil my best intentions?
Well, I don't believe in fate, so how about this for a coincidence......
Last time, I said I'd be there and the big ZRX blew a hose.
Today, I posted that I'd be there for the next one and this evening, on my way home from work, it blew something else! The front of the engine and back of the rad is covered in milky white streaky leakage of some description. I haven't got out to the garage to investigate yet, but I suspect the rad has sprung a leak this time, although I don't understand why the coolant has gone white. This is the first time I have used Silkolene Pro-Cool in the bike, and perhaps it is flushing out existing mineral build-ups and corrosion from the system.
I have plenty of time to fix it as a back-up before the rideout, and besides, hopefully the NC panels and seat will be back from the painter's before then, but it just goes to show, I'm better not to make promises because even though I don't go for the whole 'fate'-thang, I certainly seem to be repeatedly tempting something into giving me a kick in the nuts!
Hey-ho....

Oh cock, sorry to hear that !
Hope you get it all sorted soon

Bollocks! After an evening of much head-scratching, I am nearing the unfortunate conclusion that the head gasket has let go, hence the milky white coolant over the head of the engine, a result of it having emulsified with engine oil as it's making it's way out. Great! My back-up plan B just took itself out of the equation. Poor old ZeeRex.

This is still on, everyone still going ?

I've a few bits to do on the bike. Hopefully I'll be there.

So when's the first run out this year lads
