Rideout 19th Feb - Weather Permitting

[-Ralph-]

Right, Sat 19th Feb, Wifey at hairdresser, son at Grandmother, I have the whole day to myself. Weather permitting I'll be out on my bike.

Informal thing, not expecting too many people, so start point, leader, TEC, route, etc we'll sort out on the day or much nearer the time, and to suit the majority of attendees (so if folk from Brum sign up it'll start in Brum, if folk from Leicestershire, it'll start in Leicestershire, etc).

Meet at a cafe somewhere for a cooked brunch, rideout to somewhere else for a coffee and a spot of lunch, ride somewhere else.

Who's up for it?

I'm out on the 16th so will have to see how things go.

I'll be watching this thread though :)

Two full days to get over the hangover?

Two full days to get over the hangover?


I'm out on the bike for a day.

It seems when I was taken out in 2008 I've cracked something in my neck, when its cold, It hurts like merry hell even to the point of breathing hurts it.
I'll have to see how it goes on the 16th to see if I can do another day on the 19th.

I may have to sell the bikes if this keep on as I wont be able to ride anyway :(

Not good, which bit of you has to get cold to affect it? I find that the coldkillers neck tubes are fantastic pieces of kit and have an old one you could have to try it out.

[speedplay]

Back of my neck, but its not helped by the positioning on the bike either.

The last ride I did last year with the EAR had me out of my brains on pain killers for 3 days after.

[Specialone]

Might be able to make this, weather dependant.

Lot of fairies in this section so dont expect many Col ;)
Ill be on the DRZ no doubt.

[loonytoon]

ive been out riding every chance i get, i have noticed those fairys you know seem to appear in the nice weather.
i would love to but i have to work :(

would that be weather fairy's ;)

[Specialone]

would that be weather fairy's ;)
Ive rode a lot in winter mate, unlike some i could mention :smt019
Must admit, although i have rode in the winter, havent enjoyed it one bit tbh, fecking roads have been mud baths, basically green lanes but with cars on as well :(
Be glad when they dry up a bit and start to get less muddy.

so you should be too the drz is made for winter ;) unlike my shiny.

haha, now the salts gone and no ice, I shall be using most days again now :) roll on tomorrow.

fed up of rush hour crashes screwing up the city centre.

ps i wont be out on the 19th I'm a fairy.

[Binky]

Roll on tomorrow Rob? What's that now? Oulton?

I'm keeping an eye on this too. Would rather be a late confirm rather than have to drop out nearer the time.

[robh539]

Nah Mate just start using the bike again.

[L3nny]

Should be up for this but I am also a fairy.

[Specialone]

Well ive ordered some decent weather for this so it wont be a problem :)

[DMC]

Might make an effort here, a possible farewell to the Gixxer ;)

[L3nny]

Where you lot thinking of going? I know some nice roads around the cotswolds.

[-Ralph-]

We're going nowhere so far, lot's of talk but none of these fannys have actually put their name on the list!

But given the names that have posted in the thread so far a Brum starting point heading towards the Cotswolds is a distinct possibility.

[Specialone]

Tbh Col when i put my name down for stuff i go, so i wont atm as im not sure if if the roads are gonna be reasonable.
But you know me, im generally game for these things, as well as org drinks in brum etc, which i always turn up to i must add.

[Ed]

Now if you were coming this way...

Don't worry mate, I'm pulling everyone's legs.

The whole thread is under the proviso "Weather Permitting", if it's peeing it down with rain I won't be going either.

[Specialone]

I hope it is dry ish, desperate to start getting out properly again.

Have to do some more lanes soon too :)

Now there's a plan and if it's ****ing it down and nobody else turns up. We'll go get wetter.

[robh539]

I was out yest for a few hours. was a cracking ride. Fish hill was a little slippy in places, so the front tire say saying. But all in all a great afternoon, and was well overdue.

[tom-k6]

if the weather is dry + roads are alrite i will be up for a ride out, im always on my bike anyway, especially now i have a flame-thrower attatched where the end can should be =P

[Old Git]

Ok. put me down for a definate maybe! Will be out this weekend (12th) for a spin, but is my sons' 21st so won't be going far.
19th would be good pending the old solaie! Will give me some time to get used to the old girl again before easter, keep me posted ( as it were)

[G]

Who's up for it?

1. -Ralph-
2. G (As long as its not raining, the temp is warmer than 3c, and theres no salt on the roads lol)

I've been out today by the way so those circumstances arn't that unlikely. :cheers:

[pink and white]

Where to? And how long is the rideout?

[Specialone]

Destination to be decided, but it won't be too long, it will absolutely defo include food somewhere :)

They crap anyway ;)

[speedplay]

Blade,
Aprilia,
2 Triumph,
And a ducati so far...
Nice mix of bikes, just like a soho bike meet but without the kwaks!

[-Ralph-]

Except for the fact the prob won't be two Triumphs, but more likely a Suzuki and a Yamaha.

[Binky]

**** it, i bloody might as well come just as there needs to be some sort of SV presence felt. :takeabow:

[Mr Speirs]

4.18am!!!
Binky...go to bed.

So Col, where you got in mind for this rideout (hopefully)?

[L3nny]

Don't want to put a downer on it but I just had a look on Metcheck and the forecast for Saturday is 2 °c and sleet!!!

[Specialone]

Lenny i looked this morning and seen the same :(
Saying that, 6 days is a long time for the weather to change, if it still says it thursday then we might be in trouble.

[L3nny]

Fingers crossed

[tom-k6]

bloody english weather, it was glorious yesterday and today was sh1te, now i bet it will be amazing next saturday and sunday will be a snowstorm

[Specialone]

That will suit us fine mate, its saturday were going out ;)

[tom-k6]

oooh its a saturday, me thinking it was sunday haha, i dont own a calendar.
so heres hoping to a dull rainy sunday and a glorious saturday :)

[-Ralph-]

Don't pay any attention to the weather forecast at this stage, it means nothing until at least Thursday.

1. -Ralph- - Kettering
2. G (rain, 3 deg, salt, yadda, blah, etc) - Can't remember and he ain't telling
3. Old Git (defo mibbe) - Worcester
4. Specialone (just 'cos he will) - Birmingham
5. L3nny - Warwick
6. Tom-k6 - Birmingham
7. Binkay - Sutton Colefield

So meet around the M42 somewhere. Can anyone recommend a good place for a cooked brekkie?

[Specialone]

Decide where were going first, Long itch ain't bad for most of us, just depends where we go.

[-Ralph-]

Thought about Long Itch, but it's a long way for Old Git.

Having said that Brum is a long way for me.

I was going to decide where we went based upon where met :D

Everyone happy with Long Itchington? (Lenny shouts YES!)

[L3nny]

Long Itch FTW :D

[Binky]

60 miles to the start point for me. Unless the weather is bloody fantastic and there are loads of really really cool people coming and it turns into the bike party of a lifetime i think i'm going to drop out.

Don't have the wages to splash 60 odd quid on petrol and food either.

[beabert]

Never rode in a group before, how fast you all likely be going? When ever i ride with just 1 person its always a fecking sprint lol.

I could come and drop off i suppose.

[-Ralph-]

7. Binkay - Sutton Colefield

Take it that should have been 'Binkay - Nottingham' then?

Still, last ride we did from Long Itch was Bourton on the Water (I highly likely candidate for this ride too), which would be a 200 mile return trip from Nottingham via Long Itch, or about £30 quid in fuel and a fiver on food.

Sure you can't be tempted?

[-Ralph-]

Never rode in a group before, how fast you all likely be going?

Me. On an XT600? How fast? Are you kidding? See you at Long itch ;)

[beabert]

In that case i might very well tag along until i get bored :)

Done this route many times, lots of nice roads and villages. Can go to Bicester as well if we want to add a few more miles. Or go via Daventry and Banbury to add even more miles.

But obviously if everyone wants to go somewhere else then that's cool

Lol I forget you lot are essentially a bunch or southerners, it's 90 miles of M1/M69 for me just to get to the start point, and while the weathers no great I'd rather spend that 90 miles in the peak district or Leicestershire. When the weather warms up i'll start venturing 'down south' ;)

[robh539]

Looks like a great route, some of my fav roads.

Just a heads up, Stanway hill. The roads a right mess as normal for this time of year more DRZ than ST ;). Very small clear road tracks with lots of mud/stones crap washed from the banks. If the forecast for mid/late week is correct it will be even worse. Also the 'large puddles' can stay for a day or too, so oncoming traffic can be wrong side mid bend. Its poo in the car, let alone on a bike.

Did on the bike last week, so have fun ride safe :)

[G]

I'm in Denmark this week and its -6, snowing and heading west lol

Fingers cross though ha

If you trek out to Leics give me a shout and I'll see if I'm allowed out

[Specialone]

Long itch cafe ain't far from you rusty, why dont you come out with us?

G, if you defo wanna come out we can modify our start point and route so it's more suitable if you like, somewhere in-between ?

[rusty76]

depends how long Mum will let me out for

The B4455/Fosse Way looks riveting. ;)

[-Ralph-]

The B4455/Fosse Way looks riveting. ;)

I was thinking we'd need to cut out some of the straight bits. The Fosse Way is OK for getting from A to B, but I wouldn't want to make up a significant amount of the ride with it.

[beabert]

I knew it, big long fast road!

[Specialone]

I heard the fosse way is notorious for mobile speed vans, so no fasty fasty down there ;)

[-Ralph-]

I knew it, big long fast road!

Nobody forces you to ride at anything but your own pace on a rideout mate. I can understand that you may be nervous about riding in a group, but until you try it you'll never know. Come along, and if you don't like it, you don't have to come on another one.

I dont mind riding in a group, worse is the socialising inbetween lol. I did the wooten bassett ride but that was obviously too slow.

I just dont like sitting at 80 in 60s for hours on end. I think ill leave you all to it :) I hope the weather is good!

Fairy nuff, but I won't be exceeding the speed limit by more than 10% +2 (68mph) all day, on my XT600 I much prefer to chug along and watch the scenery.

[Specialone]

Beabert, honestly you ride to your own pace, 99% of the rideouts I've been in groups I've been at the back cos I've rode to my pace not tried to keep up with others.

Most people ive rode with will feck off if they feel the need then wait for you if needed, all junctions are covered so you won't get lost.
You will also learn a lot fro riding with other peoples styles, especially experienced riders, just don't watch me ;)

Come along mate, like ralph said, try it once if you don't like it, don't go on another.
Everybody has felt intimated at first, it's natural.

[L3nny]

It's not as straight as it looks and we'd only be on for 10 minutes but then i"m not gonna be on a single

[Specialone]

I personally don't care where we go or what roads we go on as long as they ain't covered in mud.
I'm just desperate to get out again :)

[L3nny]

Nor me, just making suggestions as I know the roads around that area.

Forecast has now changed to 11 degrees and sunny :cool:

Im not intimidated, why does everyone thing that lol. I fully happy riding like a maniac every now and then. Im not looking to learn anything either, im happy with my riding :). However like ralph i like just to take in the scenery on a ride, like walking without the walking.

[Specialone]

You can never stop learning mate, well i felt intimidated on my first ride and im sure most have at some stage, you must be super confident then ;)
Well its your choice i guess, but imo its crazy being part of a good bikers forum like the org and not riding with them occasionally.

No im not a confident person at all :) I don't think im a great rider by any means, just average.

I have rode with 2 from here seperate, the first rode faster than id like but was ok, the second i aborted the ride, not my style of ride at all.

You'll be screaming to leave after after an afternoon with us. Come along! I'll be mad tempted if you come Beabert.

If you do i'll even let you follow me for a bit. :p ;)

[beabert]

Im gonna say no so im not factored into any plans, but if i feel well (long story) i might very well turn up.

[ryansv]

Hmmmm might come along is tempting :)

What time we meeting Col? Is it defo long itch start for brekkie?

[-Ralph-]

Has it been raining over there today? I've been in Leeds all day, but came home via Nottingham, Melton Mowbray, Oakham, Corby, to get a break from the motorway. Roads were wet but nice and clean. Lookk like they've had a really good wash. Tried on purpose to get spray from other vehicles to go smeary on my windscreen and failed, did the whole journey with an empty washer bottle and didn't need it.
