So, after meeting with Stacy (Tattooist250chic) and Steve (Wright) yesterday, we popped around to see Shane (Smiled) for a brew and a chat. Shortly after which, we found ourselves on a blast around the south Circular en-route to the A3 and some nice twisties, with a stop at the ruins of Waverley Abbey.

All was great, nice weather and a chance to get the throttle wide open on the A3, followed by a couple of nice twisties. Stopped at the abbey (Pic’s below), had a mooch around, and headed back to the bikes.
Had barely even gotten fifty metres when I realised I had a puncture on the rear tyre :pinch: Thankfully, the others stopped and I had packed a puncture kit. So, after 30 minutes of graft and a nice RAC chap reinflating my tyre to the correct PSI, we headed off towards home.
I think we picked up some sort of mad-monk curse at the abbey though, as Stacy nearly high-sided on a roundabout and I had two very near misses (felt the scythe tapping my shoulder!) on the way home.
Thankfully we all got back in one piece, but it was worth the adventure. And to think we were just going to have a quiet day going around the usual tea-huts!
