Rideout ideas for the bank holiday weekend; Discuss.

[Thunderace]

Whos in & where to & when!:smt040

[Spank86]

Thinking about it, Sunday morning is also a possibility but I'd only be about till 1-2ish

[Thunderace]

Saturday,Sunday,Monday or Tuesday all good for me, would like another long run like last Sunday any and all suggestions welcome!:smt119

[Fallout]

I reckon I can do pretty much any time. We still need a drag race Nathan, because your bike is for girls and you are in fact a girl. Ad is a girl too.

[Spank86]

I keep telling you, just because you want to sleep with me doesn't make me a girl, it makes you bi... And also SOL.

[Thunderace]

Yes we will, and if you win I'll buy you a big girly cup of tea!:rolleyes:

As you may have guessed things are looking up on the financial front.[-o<

[Spank86]

I was wondering, thought maybe you'd converted the bike to biofuel, or fallout's hot air.

[Fallout]

Good news on the finances Nathan, and let's not get onto hot air Ad, otherwise we'll probably get onto Zeppelins ... and you know that's a downwards spiral.

What would be a cool direction? New Forest? Something northerly for a change?

[Spank86]

An upward spiral if it ever gets off the drawing board.

[Bordtea]

Ooo new forest sounds decent, might be able to scrounge some petrol money :P

I dont mind just let me know where and when to meet. (Loomies & Early):notworthy:

[Tomor]

No can do for me this weekend unfortunately, already doing family stuff

Early is not necessary!!!! :smt019

[The Idle Biker]

I'm up for it, any day but Monday and definitely Tuesday. There's a Help for Heroes rideout early (07:30 meet) on Saturday morning from Yateley village hall to South coast and back? I'm open to riding anywhere though.

[DJ123]

I would say New Forest if i'm out as i've not been there in a while. Problem is it's a bank holiday, so unless you're there early it'll be major traffic and idiots in the area.
I'd say lunch at Bournemouth?Boscombe which ever day it was. I'll see what days i'm free if Wales goes ahead

[Bordtea]

What's the weather forecast like for the weekend?

[StewartR]

Weather starts to look typically bank holiday from Sunday. Will be heartily dischuffed if I've missed the last decent weekend for a while but I'm keeping the faith. As Morten once very nearly sang - 'The sun always shines on SVs'.

Hang on hang on... You mention the New Forest will be busy but then suggest Bournemouth?? Really? If the weather is only vaguely nice/warm the place gets rammed. Don't you do enough filtering on the daily commute?

Went to a stag do there ten years ago over August bank holiday and it was a reasonable day - good job I was on the bike as it was a car park for a good 30 miles out. The others all arrived three or four hours late as they were stuck in it and had real problems parking.

Dont mind filtering, a good chance to get some world class d**king about on camera!:cheers:

[Fallout]

When I'm editing the videos, skipping through to find something worth adding, whenever I see the ThunderAce appear, I stop and watch it. There's always a 90% chance something grandma would disapprove of will be on tape.

[Thunderace]

:confused:So is everybody happy to do sunday to the new forest or bornemouth????:confused:

[Fallout]

Sunday is a family BBQ. Ideally would be sat, mon or tues, but may be able to wangle it.

[Spank86]

Very happy. Sunday morning or tuesday are both definitely fine for me.

Saturday and monday are no go's.

Fallout if you can wangle sunday would be good as it seems the best day for others???!!!![-o<

[Spank86]

Although weather forecast at the moment looks pretty miserable so you might not be riding or bbqing anyway.

[WayneL]

I reckon I should be good to go for the weekend. My neck is a bit better now.

[Thunderace]

OK Saturday does look better weather wise, are u sure u cant make it spank? Im gonna start a new thread to see who's in![-o<

[Spank86]

I've got to work all day so no way out of it I'm afraid.

[Mark_h]

I'm a no for this weekend folks off on hols. Should be back and tanned in a coupe of weeks to see if I can coax Thunderace into riding a bit more like he means it!

If you want to go somewhere really different and get in some overtaking practice try taking the old A30 Stockbridge - Salisbury - Shaftsbury - Sherborne - Yeovil then Cartgate for a bacon butty then do the same the other direction or come back via salisbury plains

Came back from Cornwall this way and it's a great road as all the traffic takes the A303 instead.

Take care out there folks!

YEs, ride the nice roads around/in the New forest, then onto to Bournemouth/Boscombe for lunch at the Harvester on the sea front. It's easy on the bike, i go there regular, i know the roads and where to go to avoid the worst of it.
If you're heading there on the motorway it is rammed, queues practically from end of M3, onto the M271 all the way. filtered through it before when i've made a late decision to go down there.

[Winder]

working all bank holiday, well i say working, sitting around the station drinking tea but still have to be there
