View Full Version : About time for a rideout me thinks
Right then, time to get a GM rideout sorted I think, I was thinking in March time on a weekend, Saturdays are ideal for me with work on Sunday but can always take a day off.
We had a chat at the pub the other night and perhaps the 1st/2nd of March is possible.
Ideas on dates and also routes?

Only two, Dan? Sounds like someone can't handle his drink :lol:
Oh and yeah, I might be available then!
Dude, everyone KNOWS I'm a total lightweight. You would have known that if you'd shown up more. Hmmph!
:D
Grr and Grr.
I'd have liked to have made this one as my first ever....but I can't do that weekend, either day.
Tis the birthday of the other half and the best gift would not be absence. Sunday is a charity thingy I've got going on.
(PS - totally off topic - thanks everyone who offered to help me months ago with my Scottoiler - I fitted it last week on my own. Knuckles etc intact too, though I've lost the bung off the throttle body. Hopefully wont be needing it again though ;))
How far will you be going / do you usually do?

Well my wife is running the Reading Half Marathon on Sunday 2nd. She wanted me there but if it's sunny/dry I'll be on the rideout. I love my wife but it's all about prioritising! ;) tbh I'll be there at the London Marathon supporting her so she's letting me off this one. My wife's great. :rolleyes:
Ok this date is looking bad, so what about another weekend then like the 8/9. Post up dates you can't do in March, the one with the less wins!
You guys coming for a tootle this weekend. TVM are going for a ride somewhere - not sure where that may be but last suggestions were boxhill...

1st/2nd is looking possible for me. I've got some drinking planned during that month so some other weekend mornings might not be so great ;)

I think we should keep it to the 2nd. Everyone knows Sundays are better for rideouts. :smt001

While I admit that sounds very tempting I was thinking more local. Like, er, ENGLAND!!
hah!
Is it really that cheap though Stu? Would be good to do that later in the year.
So is it the 2nd? anyone riding up from portsmouth area?

I think it's certainly looking like being on the 2nd
as for the route eviltwin is in the process of sorting out a route, he should be doing a recce run this weekend and will post it up this weekend

Yes it is - allowed a car & up to 9 people for that until middle of March or so. i.e. when no bugger wants to go :lol:
