Gonna be a few MK virgins there this year from all the chat I've had with you lot during our more regular riding this year - looking forward to it

Oh, the 2am club was so last-last year. It was the 4:30am club last year, and if we can find anything to burn to keep us warm it's the dawn club this year, so bring it on

So not long to go now till MK11........Just a few months away, what are we all looking forward to? building for it? buying for it? hoping not to bump into?

For me it's seeing some top friends for the weekend, seeing loads of people having a top time, Phil and Laz doing the comp (awesome guys!) camping out with BBQ's and drink, ride around the lakes and seeing all those gorgeous builds in the SnS tent.

Whats it for you?

Swivel · « **Reply #22 on:** May 26, 2011, 09:53 AM »
