HOLIDAY IN HOLLAND
2005
RALLY THOUGHTS BY SINBAD
AFTER READING THE REPORT IN SCOOTERING IT GAVE ME
TIME TO REFLECT ON THE GOOD FUN HOLIDAY IN HOLLAND
REALLY WAS. IT WAS A DARK DANK THURSDAY AND IT
SEEMED SOMEONE WAS FOLLOWING ME AROUND WITH A
HOSE PIPE BUT HEY WE ONLY HAVE 70 MILES TO HULL 2
CRASHES 1PUNCTURE AND NEARLY 5 HOURS WE ARRIVE
IN HULL AND WHAT YOU THINK JUST HAPPEND YOU GOT IT
AS WE PULL UP IT STOPS RAINING.THE BOAT TRIP WAS
GREAT GOOD FUN OVER TOO FAST BUT AT LEAST ITS DRY
AFTER CHOKING ON TWO STROKE FOR A GOOD 20 MINS
WE WERE ALL THROUGH CUSTOMS AWAY WE WERE ON
THE 2 HOUR TRIP AS WE PULL OFF THE QUESTION WAS
WHO'S GOT THE MAP AS IT TURNED OUT WE HAD THE
WORST MAP IN THE WORLD THANKS TO MARK THE MOD
(WHO GETS LOST IN THE CAR PARK AT WORK THICK TWAT)
SO WE ALL SET OFF ON THE MOTORWAY HOW DIFFICULT
CAN THAT BE 2 HOURS TOP SIDE WE WILL BE THERE IT
WAS LIKE A CARRY ON FILM FIRST FORK IN THE
MOTORWAY WE LOST 4 NEXT MAJOR JUNCTION 4 MORE
NOW SPLIT INTO 3 GROUPS THE FRONT GROUP I WAS IN
MADE IT CLOSE AFTER 4 HOURS WE WERE WELL AND
TRULY LOST IN A HOUSING ESTATE OUR LUCK CHANGED
WHEN WE MET A BIKER AFTER MICK HAD SPOKEN TO HIM
WITH HIS GREAT GRASP OF DUTCH AFTER ONLY 4 HOURS
HE COULD SHAKE SOMEONES ARM AND SHOUT WERE
ENGLISH TO OUR AMAZEMENT THIS SEEMED TO WORK AND
WE WERE PUT ON THE ROAD TO THE CAMP A FURTHER
HOUR AND A HALF WE WERE AT CAMP 6 HOURS AFTER WE
SET OFF THEN THE PHONE STARTED WE WERE TRYING TO
GUIDE THE OTHERS IN BY ABOUT 6 IN THE AFTERNOON WE
WERE SET UP THEN GUES WHAT YOU GOT IT THE RAIN CAME.
