Title: 10th October 2010 : Norfolk Run (** change of date **)
Post by: c515mph on 28, April, 2010 - 14:19:18
I am arranging the Norfolk Run a little earlier this year,if it does not clash with to many events.
I think that October 3rd. would be a good choice,as there is more chance of some end of summer sunshine.
I hope some of you will be able to make it.
All the best,Ray.

note: date amended to 10th Oct

It looks like I'm going to have to pull out of Ray's run on Sunday, as it looks like its going to be the last chance we will get to take the kids to Drayton Manor theme park, we have had the tickets since August, but the weeks keep flying past and its either been raining or when it has been nice one of us are working, plus for a couple of weeks I did'nt feel up to much after having the nose operation, the tickets need to be used before the end of October and can't see us going
any other time.

just been so busy this week and out again tomorrow to Thame, so early start late back all to see grandkids.

i've had no chance to check/prepare C5's, one needs a rear brake cable both could use rear tyres, not sure in their condition if they will do 10 miles, and i can't even get the van emptied out unless i get up at 5am Sunday no way that going to happen lol!.

enjoy yourselves and ride safe

Alan

so will have to be next meet, sorry folks

Post by: MikeDX on 09, October, 2010 - 17:22:52
Both C5s are now in the bus ready for tomorrow! Batteries are on charge.

I still have my wheel issue - so thee may be the need for a mini tech session before we get on the road. Is anybody bringing any spares? I may need a bearing..
Title: Re: 10th October 2010 : Norfolk Run (** change of date **)
Post by: radiomarty on 09, October, 2010 - 18:30:49
Have one in the car and one on the trailer - all ready for the last one of the year - Mike if I remember i'll grab some bearings on the way out .

Ray -  Tried phoning you but not getting an answer, a bit of disappointing news mate. My mum is still in hospital so I won't be able to make the run tomorrow. She was due to be released today (meaning I could have been free for the run) but they've decided to keep her in an extra night. Since she has had both feet operated on I need to be there to collect her if she is released tomorrow - didn't feel right suggesting she get a taxi so I could go on a c5 run  :o.

Really,really sorry to let you down...especially as the date was moved to fit in with my shifts.

Feeling quite low at the moment  :(

Great day at Ray's run. We carried lot's of spares ie Pods,control boxes, wheels, inner tubes ,Chains and even a backlight (Mike ?) but not one no not one breakdown. Ray thank you for the hospitality, chips , drinks , sausage rolls etc and putting on a nice collection display you were a star. Great weather allowed us to even have a little group tech section investigating Rays noisy gearbox which sadly had to have a new outer case but was very quickly repaired by Plod and his purple gloves !! Altogether a great day and a good end to 2010 season Video later but some snaps for now:

C5 CAM ...

http://www.youtube.com/user/SuperPLOD11#g/a

This is a sample of the C5 cam attached to the front of my C5 last Sunday ...  Its ok until you move off, then it vibrates quite a bit, i will look at mounting it in e ther way for future meets.

I have also uploaded some video from my other camera, but its still being processed by You tube, so may be a while before it shows up on my profile.
