August Goodwood Breakfast Club rideout

[sam anon]

After reading this thread (http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=152792), who's interested in a ride out there on Sunday the 1st of August?

It'll be an early start, as it's open from 8am till noon. I know a great route down there from Basingstoke.

Yep, I'll send everyone who has said they're interested a private message two weeks before!

[Stig]

I'll have the kids that weekend so I'm out.

[sandman]

That looks really good..... I'm in!

This is now a week on Sunday, an update will follow soon! Keep your eyes peeled!

Ok all, Goodwood is open from 8-12 on Sunday, so I reckon we should meet up here:

at 9am to arrive at Goodwood for about 10-10.30. I thought we could hang around until midday-ish, when the drivers leave for their own drive out thingy.

I can't hang around for ages, so it's back the way we came to Basingstoke, arriving about 1ish.

Sound good?

[walkaboutandy]

What is that place? Is it a pub or hotel or something?

9am....that means I've got to leave home at 7am!! :o

No, just the entrance to a road, I could change the meet point to more of a landmark if people think it would help?

Yep, early start I'm afraid, I think the clue is in the thread title!

[walkaboutandy]

My sunday breakfast is usually at 2pm! ;)

A landmark would be good as I've near been to Basingstoke before and haven't got a clue where i'm going. Isn't it hotel/pub thats opposite?

[sam anon]

Ok, we'll change the meeting point to Traders Bar and Grill.

I won't change the marker on Google maps as it's right opposite.

Oh, and just to let you know the rideout is somewhat weather dependant. A bit of drizzle is fine, if it's forecast to **** down all morning I ain't going!

[walkaboutandy]

OK, nice one!

Fair play with the weather call. I don't really want to spend a day in the rain.

[Sosha]

That'll be the day after my Bro's Wedding.... erm... no. :bom:

[philbut]

Still no idea if I'll make it. i really want to but the Mrs is still undecided about what we are up to, and apparently I have to go to Great Aunt so and so's birthday or some **** like that.

[philbut]

so, how did it go guys? Sorry I din't make it. I woke up with a stinking hangover in bath - just a bit too far to ride at that time in the morning.

[sam anon]

Yeah it was good, but spent some time on a gravel dressed road on the way back!

We came back a slightly different route to the one we went on, which wasn't as good in my opinion.

I'll have to do it again at sometime.
