Its about keeping the FBM alive and showing support for DJ and his family letting them know he will never be for gotten.</rant> im a bit pissed if that was a dig at my comment.... i wont ever forget dj, wether i go on this ride or not.oh, i dont want this to turn into a argument either.

Insane-Downhill Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 (edited) Thought someone would post a new topic talking about the ride today???? Was a good turn out, I think about 40 riders but I didnt count, I left at about 1 so after it stopped raining more may of turned up. I took some (crappy) pictures, not sure how to put them up?! Did any one get any video of the ride? Edited May 13, 2007 by Insane-Downhill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendrix Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 The ride was immense. Got to wait a little while for my pictures to be done.Don't think I've had so much fun in a long time...improved on my riding 100% today too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

br3n Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 (edited) how did the weather turn out in the end?started off pretty awful, all huddled under the bridge riding a tiny wall (far too many people for that space) then it stopped raining and started to dry up, got about 5 hours of dryness - At one point (just after the silence) the sun was fully out and it was actually HOT.After as i said, about 5 hours it started to rain again and Im guessing everyone went their seperate ways.Was awesome to meet new people and much respect to nick mannings and the other guy who landed the 180... Nicky G and Sam wheeler pulling off some awesome stuff on the bridge, Great ride.Brendan (echo hifi, Onza hoodie) Edited May 13, 2007 by trialsmad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed Pants™ Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 (edited) Just got in, 5.30+ hours travel time sucks.As said, good attendance, nice atmosphere, good riding and it was nice to have the 1 minute silence in the fashion we had it in - everyone gathered round, really made the memorial ride what it was.Nice to see people too.

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 Cheers to everyone for a wicked ride. I haven't actually been on a proper organised ride in ages but it was good to see some old faces again and very glad the weather picked up a bit in the afternoon, even though I was riding a bit pants and not making stuff I should be able to do in my sleep! Looking forward to seeing some pics Dave (Monty 221Pr with the oh so gorgeous orange rims!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy d Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 Yeah I had a great day, cheers everyone.And bigger thanks to Jon for organising and directing me and gilly, and also to the miraculous weather! I managed to only get soaked on the way there and back - lovely dry ride! Now I am truly cream crackered.My first trip to Portsmouth, seems like an awesome place to ride. And the atmosphere and all the people there made it cooooool. Although I still don't know who most people are... I was the one with the yellow lid and black Iolo.
