Last Sunday 30 Buellists rode to Brooklands in Surrey,England for a meet and to look around the automobile/aviation museum there.

Check here for details on Brooklands:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooklands

The furthest travelled guy (on the day) rode 402 miles (round trip),this was real dedication as it was a cold day of rain,rain and more rain.

Several people meet up en route to ride in,I was part of a 13 strong gaggle? rumble? of Buells (all XBs) which was the first time I've ridden with just Buells-it was absolutly awesome,we all had loud pipes-mostly Remus'.

Here are the Uly highlights:

It was really good to meet you at last.

If you said at the time-I've forgotten (I was knackered),are you going to the Black Bear do on Saturday? I've got a pass from the gf so I'll be going.
