there may be 100 names on the list to be going but remember.....some of those are little people i.e kiddie winks. There are quite a few of us that won't be doing the rideout. Some are in the wonky limb gang and some aren't comfy riding around in such a large group.......

Me?? well I'm hoping Jamaxx's prediction of sun will give me a tan!!!!
Carnivore....well i'm sure by then the shipping container of painkillers will have him comfortably drooling in a corner somewhere(but not on his bike)

The ride isnt about going fast, its about being social, if you can ride at 55- 60mph on an A road you'll be fine.

As for the panic braking, just dont ride up the chuff of the bike in front of you.

It seems a shame to come all this way and then not explore when you're down here and you wont find some of the roads we're going on just by exploring with a map ;)

I'm one of those " not doing the rideout" as well, just going for the social side, see old friends from previous years that sort of thing, hopefully some decent weather, hey even got the Mrs to buy me some shorts ( well long shorts, kind of thing :smt102,).

But ask any that went even in cars, and in the downpour they had a great time without a bike.

Cheers Mark.

hey hey, whats all this talk of not doing the ridout buddy? Its the main reason we go.... the socialising is kindda filler on either side of it.

Look, dont eat or drunk much and spend the cash on the petrol for the rideout. hell even if i have to ride with you and keep everyone a safe distance from you and the topbox i will :D

It wont be the same if you and maria dont come on the ride itself mate so please beg or borrow some dosh and do it.

PM me if you're still unsure of a group ride... i know i was when i did my first AR in 05 so i understand dude.

I think its the other way round. Its ok to chat on this forum, but its a whole load better in real life, can't do it on the back of bike with your lid on!;)

I'm not overly keen on the large volume of bikes in the group this year. I fair well on group rides, done it far too often, but I'm bowing out for a whole load of reasons
Large group
petrol
skint
not seen my bloke in three weeks, apart from the odd hour when I've been over at his place
Blokes hip
other peeps not doing ride, and I can talk them to death;)
Sun!!!!! yes its supposed to be sunny
etc etc etc

I just want to have a good time in my own way:p
