| Hello Darek! There should be two or three Silverwings on the Kent Rideout. As far as the X9OC is concerned, the rider of any maxi is welcome - several former X9 owners have moved on to Burgmans and a few to Silverwings, Fuocos, MP3s, GP800s, etc. _________________ Mike - Riding on the right - riding for pleasure!

| The rideouts are orderly but very friendly - we do try to do proper Group Riding, staggered formation and so on, as far as possible so everyone knows where he is and isn't having to watch out for renegades whizzing past unexpectedly. We also do 'second (third) man drop-off' so no-one gets left behind at junctions.
Bring a packed lunch - IIRC there's nowhere to buy food at the lunch stop.
We do have fag-breaks for taking photos and having a ciggie! _________________ Mike - Riding on the right - riding for pleasure!

| Couple of questions.
1) The weather is looking iffy for Sunday in Kent, what happens if it's raining hard on Sunday morning?
2) How many of you live near Kent? _________________ Grace - thank God I don't get what I deserve, but instead get what I don't.

| Is this still on at 11am at Pratts Bottom? I notice on the X9 forum that they are talking about the Ace at 9am. Is this the new start venue/time? _________________ Grace - thank God I don't get what I deserve, but instead get what I don't.
