Orson Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 Big thanks to Keith & Martin for showing me around Northern Wales. With a layer of snow, the peaks look downright Materhorn-ish! Will post pictures once I get back in Saudi. Turned out to be a great day if a bit cool. I made it home just as the sun had dropped below the horizon so...perfect timing
wambiker Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Hi looks like a great day, was sat in work thinking BUGGER!!! recognised most of the pic locations so know the roads you used. Glad you all enjoyed it. Cheers Gary
Baldini Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Martin, I can't see any of the pictures - just get a little red x in a box saying user posted image - do I have to do something technical to see them? ta, K

I know Bill uses it can you see his albums or posts? If you're using IE try right clicking on a box select properties and copy (cut and paste) the address into a new window. or i'll photobucket them and might have to upgrade my subscription
Baldini Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Thanks Martin, but still no joy. Kodak link doesn't show them, just a generic Kodak page. Can't click on the little red x boxes either as cursor doesn't show me a little pointy finger when it touches them. Dunno what IE is? Basically I'm a PC duffer & perhaps I deserve to stay in the dark....maybe it's better I don't see them anyhow Gary - how did you view them? KB

Win2000, NS7.2 Why not just upload them here?
Martin Barrett Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Hosted them on Photobucket now , have been able to put the first half of links in but the sites gone down for maitainance, so fill finish then, still shows the links but can't get to the new ones Edit - been able to work out the urls so all there now (except the map) I've uploaded the map. I'm sure Jaap's bandwidth and server space can suffer the additional 102kbs But thats why I host my piccys
Baldini Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Thanks Martin! Good grief we were lucky with the weather - it's dry again today but back to cloudy, freezing & with a biting cold NE wind - just like before. Many thanks to whoever or whatever shone on us yesterday ! KB
Martin Barrett Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Basically ... perhaps I deserve to stay in the dark....maybe it's better I don't see them anyhow KB 83344[/snapback] Only if I'd got the one as you walked out the petrol station
Dr Gil Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Great pictures, gorgeous weather, beautiful bikes! Thanks for posting this stuff Martin...I look forward to seeing more pics as they become available.
Orson Posted March 26, 2006 Author Posted March 26, 2006 My photos didn't come out quite as good as Martin's but , here are a few... Llangollen The coastal road.
Martin Barrett Posted March 31, 2006 Posted March 31, 2006 I had a quick look at my bike this morning and noticed that I've lost the lower part of the front indicator lens. When following Keith, we overtook a car, I was a little bit too close and got sprayed with the stones in the centre of the road as Keith crossed over them. I did check the headlight then and was relieved to find no chips, I didn't notice any damage to the indicator but I assume that it did it then but might not have fallen apart till yesterday Damage not obvious but from beneath Moral of the story don't follow too close
