Sometimes it's just good to read through the threads and see people all trying to help each other. I know there are crossed wires at times and people "get the hump" but that's just normal human interaction. Sometimes people try and help and get it wrong! And it works all round the world.
Clubs like this are the positive side of the internet and thanks to the Committee and volunteers for keeping it going.
Just wanted to say it, no particular trigger.
Best wishes

Re: This Club cheers me up
Well said Johnny, some people join a club and only want to take what they can from it, however I think the majority enjoy what they get from the club and even put something back over time.

It wouldn't have cheered up this chap trying to avoid the toll queue.......

Re: This Club cheers me up
Gotta be honest, I love this club & especially the forum, it keeps me going. Sometimes we agree, disagree, agree to disagree but everyone is genuine in their love for bikes and helping others enjoy theirs more.

In these difficult times the forum is a tonic! On our way back from Cornwall, did 150 miles on our little 125, so have been as far north as you can in the UK. In Shetland and now down to the lizard!

Re: This Club cheers me up
Sprid, you never disappoint. I think there may be a clue in the traffic barrier moved to one side. Perhaps they should've left it where it was before trying to skip through.
Have to say it's a bit harsh to not lend a hand.
In contrast I remember the madcap ride back from Celles sur Belle after leaving early, giving the G80S the beans in an attempt to get to the ferry and panicking at the piage toll point - group of police just waved me through! Only made it with just time to change the ticket and get on very very late at Dieppe. Chris Briggs (?) had left after me and arrived ages before me. Loads of road works and Matchless covered in wet cement thrown up off the road, the vid make me think of it.
