Okay from other threads the opinions is that it is not too early to have a ride out....
Most if not all interested said they would attend on Saturday and looking at the weather Saturday sunshine 20C plus and Sunday a total wash out.
So it seems that the weather has said what day to go for a ride.
Saturday, cos on Sunday it's going to p*ss down all day!
Meet at shirehouse maidenhead then go on to Guildford,
and that's where the ride really begins.....
Meet / gather / congregate / just turn up / at ..
shirehorse at @10:00 or before ........
We will be leaving at 10:15.....:smt079
but if your going to be late, phone me and we'll wait..
just try not to be late...
Anyone / everyone invited..........:smt104

Not for me. Jo is working. Had it been on the Sunday, there might have been a chance. Don't we usually have a poll to decide who is available on which day :?:

Myself, Sosha and Tony K bimbled down to Brighton and enjoyed the glorious weather.
Lots of bikes around today, must be something to do with that big round orange thing in the sky.

I did the same, but one roundabout was covered in gravel, so now I need a new left mirror, thank god for R&G :-( Still, up to that point had some really nice riding. Loads of bikes on the 4011, and I had a battle with a blade - I won (but he did have a pillion lol)

Tony, if you go to Brighton any more often you are going to have to start paying council tax.

Thanks for the route (apart from the farmers road....;))

Is that twice in a month? seriously dude stop falling off.

I did the 4011 6 times on saturday and have decided that its not as smooth as it was last year and that my rear shock is proper rubish. I really need to work out what it is and fiddle with it. Lots of bikes out and it was nice to have a play but seriously what is it with race reps and weekend riders? I saw some guy on a zx-something and he looked like a giant blob of snot in his colour matched leathers. It might have been ok if he wasnt unable to overtake.

Me and Warthog did the 4011 yesterday. Managed some kneedowns on some of those long sweepers. Was awesome!

Change it. NOW.

Why would you be so cruel as to make people look at that so often in one day.

Change it or stop posting. I feel :sick:

Yeah I took Dan around Oxfordshire in the sun, it was very nice! But I didn't get my knee down anywhere goddammit. No sliders though too.


Alright alright I'll change my avatar.....
