Gadget Show Live

Well it's not about the Kwak or even bikes but at the Gadget Show Live which did involve traveling to the NEC! Will post a pic when I get a good one!

the Red Marley Hill Climb

So after watching the boar we got back in the car and drove back up the way we had come to get to Red Marley. The heater just about dried out our jeans!!
After walking halfway up the hill., here's the view..

Halfway up and still going for it..

The Seven Boar!

It's bank holiday Monday and Grant and myself are having a day out. First stop is Minserstworth just south of Gloucester to see the phenomenon that is the Great Boar.

First stop was the church for tea and cake before out in the wet and windy weather, It didn't matter tho!

The river is all calm and still....

The boar coming up the river.

There was quite a crowd to both sides of us, all wrapped up in water proofs and umbrellas. 

Easter Sunday ride

The weather is what you would expect for a bank holiday. 3 Brit bikes into Ockbrook to the Swan for a nice beer!

Marlpool brewers.

Met up with Andy & Grant for a tootle on the Old Brit bikes to go to the http://Marlpoolbrewing.co.uk What a nice ride there and then what a nice place and people when we got there. All the derails in the link above. Had a lovely pint of Otters Pocket and Andy and myself brought carry outs of 4 pints!!!!

Another beautiful spring day!!

Up to a lovely sunny but mild morning. Out for a ride with Jo to Stenson Lock for a coffee. Took the long way by going thro Ticknall onto Hartstone where you take a lovely ride thro the country side to Repstone/Willington then back along the road to Barrow. Had a lovely bacon sarney, coffee and cake!!
