Don't fret. I'm sure we can think of an activity or two to keep you warm. Friction creates heat, right?

Last year, I just kept my riding gear on for most of the weekend, it's the most waterproof, breathable, and generally all day comfortable stuff I own. Though the mud still hasn't cleaned out of my Sidis! It's fair to say I looked a bit odd though, walking around in my bike textiles, leather jacket, waterproof jacket over that, and my cowboy hat (the proper protective headgear)

We will be leaving Soton around mid morning on Friday via M27/M3/A34/A303
M3 and A34??? Are you going on some magical mystery tour to get here Matt.
Wouldn't you be better to go up the A36 or carry on up the M27 to the A31, Your route is exactly the most direct, or are you just one of those middle lane hoggers with your trailer, so need as much motorway and dual carriageway as possible.:D

Cheers Saeed ,
Be assured you will be missed over the weekend :(
And I am sure I can speak on behalf of all the other friends you have on the 'ORG' on wishing you a speedy recovery :)

I CAN'T SLEEP! All packed, just have to load my bike up. What a load too. There won't be much filtering going on from me. I've managed to make a Daytona 675 nearly a metre wide! Must remember to put a bit of tape on my mirrors to remind me.
See you all there folks.

were you too excited to sleep?? You will be tired today then, can't you get your head down for an hour or so?
Yeah I was. If I go back to sleep there's no telling when I'd wake up. Got a meeting planned with a big plate of food at the Ace before the ride to the campsite too.
See you there!
