2016 tickets are now on sale to Run the Hill. Good day out in a lovely part of the Country.

Run the Hill tickets go very quickly and are already half gone it would seem so get in soon if you want a go.

I went there the first year it was open - I crashed my bike on the way home and haven't been back since! haha...

I didn't find it that great either so I just stick to Motorcycle Live and Trackdays for my biking fun

Alex is starting his training for his black belt. One of his dates as the school he has to attend is the same as this. I'm probably not going to make it. Sorry.

Yellow group, which Duke and myself are in, has the first batch of runners out at 10.45 the second run is 14:15.
Better than last year that was a long day.
Well ice on the cars this morning, so a cold run up no doubt :(

Excellent day out and great to see Frankie ( who i last saw at the same event last year) and Cookie and Jane ( who i last saw on the tour of the Ducati factory in Bologna 18 months ago).

Weather was perfect after a very cold start and some lovely bikes there.

Every time i meet up with Frankie he seems to pull within the hour. :D

Cold start, very cold start I had to stop at Wantage to warm up! Then got lost in Cheltenham, god knows hoow thaat happened, did get there in the end and had fun, which after all is what its about.

Great to Catch up with Leigh and Jane, lovely to see you both, and Si my hill buddy ha ha. I hope you all get to your destinations safe and sound.

So a short clip of what Duke and myself did today :) I have a few pics which I need to sort out soon as well.
