I'm sat here looking at heavy rain,likely for the next week at least,so those pics didn't make me jealous at all.

Nope,not even slightly. :(

We were really lucky with the weather, far better than I was expecting 24 to 30 degrees, rained 10 mins into final session on day 1, slightly damp track for first 2 sessions of day 2, then blue skies and beautiful weather. Took wets but never came out of their bag.
Went out on push bike the day after we got back and froze my twat off.

Got the Rockster back on the road at last, so stopped off by the beach to take in the setting sun and the sea.

Doesn't look like it detaches once the fuel has gone. It looks permanent.
