North London Challenge Captain Slow.

Hello All!

North London find new cafe.

On 9th July Richard kindly volunteered to take control of the days itinerary and met five others at McDonalds on a fine summers days.

Their first stop was North Weald airfield to watch two of our Branch, Chris and myself (Steve) doing a Fire Services provided advanced slow speed handling course.

We learned much and I was amazed at how well a modern bike can safely brake and just how effective quite aggressive counter steering can be.

After they stopped giggling at my efforts then then took a lovely run to Mersea Island, one of our regular haunts, but this time tried a new place to eat, the Vineyard cafe, that was apparently very good.

No photos provided though! A good run took them next to the Essex HOC show where they met other members and had a nice look around. Pictures compliments of Jim.

Chris and I managed a late drink at Ongar with Richard and Steve.

A good day…

Steve
