That was the last day.

I've never ridden in fog like that. Visibility was down to about 10 metres in places. I think i hung on to the back of Frankie's bike and stayed there.

God I remember that, it was like hitting a wall of fog.. There was a couple of tits on two bikes with no real lights who decided to suddenly stop on the road and see if there was a tail to the side
I nearly rear ended one of the feckers.

He was so angry when he got back to the B&B.. I couldn't stop laughing. It was a real pea souper.

Definitely need to be getting to one of these IOM trips. Problem is I book my holiday a year before or synthetic beginning of the year so when dates get released I am unable to make them [CONFOUNDED FACE] I will do at some point!
