Anyone planning on heading to Edinburgh HD for their party this weekend?
Looks like they are holding it over Sat and Sun.
Do we want to get a ride in before hand?

Hey Dez - could be up for it depending on the weather - ride before would be good too - keep us up to date with developments.
Cheers
Ride Safe & Enjoy

Well up for this, after saturdays riding in the sleet, snow etc this weekend should be ok ;) keep yer fingers crossed :D

A run down the east coast to North Berwick would be good. Head through Musselburgh then take the coast road past the Longniddry bints, through Gullane etc for chips in North Berwick. Approx 60 mile round trip.

Great run, but change one thing.............stop at my sisters sandwich shop--The Filling Station-- either in Preston Pans or Longniddry, for a healthy lunch, very tasty ask Linz as he has sampled her wares :D:D

I'm busy Saturday but am planning on meeting family there at 1200 Sunday so will be leaving Bankhead BP at around 1045 if anyone wants to ride in.
Weather permitting - as long as it's not too bad, a little shower is acceptable.

Will you all please stop talking about "RIDING BIKES". You should all be sensitive to the feelings of those (myself included) who for one reason or another do not have access to their beloved chunk of Milwaukee Iron .
Thank you all for kind consideration. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Sunday is the better option for me as well so lets shoot for a 12 noon ride out from as Richard says, Bankhead BP.

OK Dez, sounds like a plan. 1045 sharp at BP Bankhead then to McDonald's for 1120 departure, just about time to squeeze in a burger or two...

Went over today as when l awoke nice dry sunny morning :cool: so all was fine till few spots of rain at Hermiston Gate!! Thoughts of last sat flashed through my head :rolleyes: but anyway rain went off and all was fine. Dealers busy with free grub, soup, drinks etc, and plenty bargains, with 30% off all ticket price-calm down now, not on bikes unfortunately, as l did ask;)-but few leather jackets at half price which l treated myself and a few other bargains. Rain peed down all afternoon and was tad miserable commin home(cleaning day tom again :D) just watch traffic, bad commin home as north bound lane on bridge down to one lane, but l filtered all the way down including on bridge so saved some time. Good day though met some old friends and usual suspects, enjoy yersels tom
