'See you then'
'Kidder on the look out for babes'
Kidder cruising
on life guard duties
Another day and another full English fry up the pair headed on up to Dalby forest and down to the visitor's centre for a mid morning coffee, their they spotted a babe on a Cannondale Jackal .... poetry in motion. Kidder was all fired up now, so off he went and tackled a almost imposable track, Chiefy walked up. The pair got lost in the forest and eventually came out near Troutbeck. They big ringed it to Hackness and stopped off at the Hackness grange for a pint, but only to be turned away. 'No bikers'.!!, (Sod you then) So it was down the road to the next pub, but all they were offering were peanuts and beer, so beer it was.

The last section of off/road was nearly over, and with about only 300 yard's to go, Chiefy went down. 'I' am down' ...'I' am down' he yelled. Kidder could not see him at first because Chiefy was obscured by thick bracken. Kidder did the best mate thing and got out his camera. The pair arrived at Scarborough's south bay beach and picked there way through the mass of bodies on the beach and dipped there wheels, got the picture in the bag and headed off to the pub at the old Spa on the sea front. Feet up the pair watched the tourist go by.
" What's next then ?"...   ...   ...  " I'll have a Guinness, co's its your round ..  .. !"
