OMG....


How fookin good is this trip gunna be.....

 

We're gonna need another one...

Keep finding roads and passes that make the Stelvio look unremarkable!

Too many to do in one week, but I'm doing my best juggling

 

Today's pic



Yep, that's a road.


And yep, we're going up it. (If it's not a 'bikers only' route)

 

...and the view back down from the top...

 

Are we gonna need oxygen or is that what air bags are for



Good thing about being in Florida is that the days are flying by
(Over 80F every day so far and not sticky) not you mate the humidity

See ya all soon.

have we got a price of the hotels yet ???

stu

 

Oh yes......

 

Right guys, I'm gonna have to cancel Sunday's little meet round at my gaff.

I've just got far too much work on, which means I'll be sat in front of the lappy all day clicking, dragging, and pulling out what's left of my hair.

This WILL be rescheduled for another Sunday in the near future.

Please accept my apologies if you've arranged your weekend / day around this, but I have to put work first.


Also, while I'm here...

Rather than keep all details and communications in this one thread, I'm going to set up a seperate forum, purely for this trip, with a link from a (hopefully) sticky thread at the top of the main forum.

It's not intended to replace SN in ANY way, just as a way of collating all the details, posts, threads, pictures, etc. into one area.

I'll be putting the basics together soon (hopefully later tonight) and I'll get Al to sort out the sticky bit. Keep your eyes peeled.

 

Poised... coiled like a striking Cobra... maybe a tad slower due to several G&T's.... but I'm ready... oh yes... just give the word.. boom! I'll be off like an Exocet.. spearing to the target.. true.. accurate and precise.. unless of course you happen to be dropped by some Argentinian... who I'd like to thank...

Anyway.. give me the nod... a signal.. some sort of sign.. and I'll be there... you know me... er........................................

 

right then, here you go...

www.wyiocalpstrip.forum5.com

All suggestions for other groups and categories more than welcome

 

Make it a general WYIOC forum with the Stelvio section as a sub-forum...

I'll post a Sticky saying we have our own private club forum as we await the WYIOC.co.uk site and forum to be done (you listening Si? (bb1328 that is)

This will give us a club area that is open only to WYIOC members (so we'll need to have a controlled registration page) . SNET WILL remain our home, but there's a need for an area where we can post very specific club stuff..

 

 

Changed the look of the tour forum to something a little more appropriate, and I'm starting to put pictures on there instead of here.

I think we should let this thread drop now, and stick all relevant info on the other forum.

Perhaps a thread on here with a link in the first post, which can be bumped as and when new content is added to the other forum?

 

really sorry but i wont be able to go on this trip afraid i am goin to have to drop out

 

thats a shame bret,,,how come your pulling out ??

stu

 

ano i really wanted to go just money mate

 

Only 18 more haircuts to go

 

Can anyone give me a rough mileage and costings. I'd love to be able to do this trip

 

Phil, YHPM

 

Well, you will have when you empty your inbox

 

In the Lancia?

I work for a bank amd even I couldn't get hold of your petrol money....

 

Yep Al, was thinking of joining you in the lancia, a few things I need to get checked out on it first though & if I was to go I'd need the coilovers adjusting to make it a more comfortable ride and then see if the dates will fit between work, oh and a final costing for hotels etc. The other problem I may have is that I've no luggage space whatsoever & I suppose I should get myself a spare wheel incase of punctures

Sticky, PM box emptied

and pm me a price for a george cross & Phil W for my rear side windows please

 

Don't worry about luggage space.. We'll have room for the toothbrush and one pair of boxers....

 

Is there room for two extra persuit riders on this there trip

 

You and Jackie coming on those mick?

To be hoped weather is nice

 

No Me And Dazza well maybe

We can detour to the south of france if its raining

 

Sounds like a plan matey. You know you'd be welcome. We'd even wait for you

 

Another day nearer

 

Thats my little pink bike...
