MK blues
« on: August 25, 2016, 08:10 PM »
Anyone else suffering?
seemed to spend a long time getting ready for MK this year then had to drop onto a large job this week. Found myself reminiscing at lunch and wishing it was a 3 day event just to soak the atmosphere up a little more
Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

The blues are pretty bad knowing you've not gone once you've seen the pictures!
When I was born, the world was a far simpler place.
It was all just cops and robbers.
And BMX.

Definitely got the MK blues. Spent so much time getting ready for it, and it's over in a flash. Even a 3/4 day event wouldn't be long. I'm sorry I never even made it to yours and Rich's camp, and it was only the other side of the helipad! I'm defo only taking 4 bikes next time, so I can wander round, speak to everyone and soak up the MK vibe. I bloody loved it, despite the shocking weather on Saturday. I've only had a skim through the zine so far, but it looks excellent, You've done an amazing job in getting it all done. My hat goes off to you. Absolutely fantastic work  :4_17_5: :4_17_5: :4_17_5: :4_17_5: :4_17_5:

Had this week off with Asa so my come downs been pretty easy going tbh. :)  Popped round to Stu27's on tuesday to collect a seat clamp, then to nosepickben's yesterday to collect a f&f, went to the match last night and we've been the chill-factor today for a bit of snowboarding.  :daumenhoch:  Might go the Pleasure Beach tomorrow if it stops fookin raining.  :-\

My week has dragged. MK Sunday always has a bit of sadness to it as you know that it will be a year before you see some people again...

Straight back to being mad busy at work, Tuesday was a 14 hour day driving to Leeds and back just to give some training for a few hours (I did get to see MK twice though)

One good thing was that I'd forgotten Monday was a holiday, so will try and do something nice with Mrs Griff at the weekend

No blues here, MK was awesome and has inspired my to create a display for the next event. The display tents were ace but they were also so full of cool bikes it was difficult to get a good look at them, so it got me thinking  ::)

the display tents were all superb this year, stacked full of lovely bikes and a real testament to how great we build bikes on RAD  :daumenhoch:
